Singin the the Rain

I was so thrilled at the mention of Singin in the rain in today's DID. It is my favorite Hollywood musicals/comedies of all times. The entire movie is a joy.

The character Cosmo Brown played by Donald O'Connor is two hoots. I mean he is all about what funny theatrical dancing is all about. Here is the video

For some people it may be too many props instead of dancing, but Cosmo Brown is a classic. This is how to use props, how to be funny, and show the clumsy common man in theatrics.

My personal favorite from SIngin in the rain. You have to wait for the song a bit, but some good tap dancing and three people choreography.

Then there is Gene Kelly's classic Title Song

TFS RTH...being goofy but still executing dances with much ease and perfection...thats the art of comical theatrics...
