Singin' in the Rain is a 1952 musical film starring Gene Kelly and
directed by Kelly and Stanley Donen, with Kelly also handling the choreography. It offers a comic depiction of Hollywood's transition from silent films to "talkies". The movie is frequently described as one of the best musicals ever made. Shooting began on June 18, 1951 and was completed on November 21.
The dance routine in which Gene Kelly sings the title song while twirling an umbrella, splashing through puddles and getting soaked to the skin, is probably the most famous of all movie musical sequences. It has been parodied several times, notably by Morecambe and Wise and Paddington Bear. The dance was also parodied, briefly, by The Goodies during their television episode Saturday Night Grease, where the music for the dance sequence was "Singin' in the Rain".
The song was used mockingly by Alex DeLarge in the rape scene in Stanley Kubrick's film A Clockwork Orange (1971).
