One of the earliest musical movies. Watch it as if you're in 1929 and you'll love it. Hasn't gotten fair recognition.

We've all herd Sight and Sound and AFI sing its praises. But it very well deserves all the praise. It brought film into a new age and does it with a loose message. *****

Arthur Freed's music, Gene Kelly's dancing, and the comedy make this one of my favorite films. Nice DVD set too. Love the special features.
