Singing in the Rain Singing in the Rain(1952) directed by: Gene Kelly, and Stanley Donen. Singing in the rain had a very well technical quality to it. The movie was shot okay reason why was it was okay is because it had very little creative shots, like the whole movie was like that. But the movie scored very well since well it was a musical and the songs and music went with the movie. Like when they was singing good morning, it was in the morning time and so the song and music went with each other. Then another time was when Don Lockwood was leaving Kathy's house he started to sing singing in the rain and he was walking home in the rain. The film could have been better if they took out that whole musical number when Don was in New York, it

    Often when one thinks of slavery in the antebellum South, images of powerful independent whites on sprawling plantations and cotton rows come to mind. But Walter Johnson’s 1999 “Soul by Soul” hopes to shift that focus to the volatile interdependence of slave and master and the large slave pens in the region’s major cities. Using the city of New Orleans in the country’s sprawling southwestern frontier as his primary case study, Johnson weaves his ingenious and compelling narrative from the letters of slaveholders, court records of disputed slave sales, and the narratives of America’s most famous slaves such as Solomon Northup. (Johnson, Introduction).…

Today auto tune is used, however, the characters changed their voices to make the songs sound more 50s. The last lens is that everything is stereotyped and very fictional. The audience obviously should not believe what happens in the musical can happen in real life.…
