Jackie and Greg put on their tap shoes as they get into a film very near and dear to their hearts, Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly's SINGIN' IN THE RAIN from 1952. Topics of discussion include the recycling of songs from older productions, why people sleep on Jean Hagen's performance, how Kelly took inspiration from Powell and Pressburger, and why it's basically the greatest movie musical ever made.
