Singin' in the Rain

In Brazil, "Cantando na Chuva", in Portugal "Serenata à Chuva", is a 1952 comedy musical film starring Gene Kelly, Donald O'Connor, and Debbie Reynolds. Directed by Kelly and Stanley Donen, with Kelly also providing the choreography. Kelly's most remembered and most loved number seems to be the title dance.

To quote Will Friedwald:It's not only the four most rapturous minutes in the history of cinema, but everything that dance should be, a glorious affirmation of everything that it means to be alive.” The movie is frequently described as one of the best musicals ever made.
