My favourite part of 'The Hollywood Revue of 1929'...

My 94-year-old mother and I watched "The Hollywood Revue of 1929" on TCM yesterday, and both of us loved the long "Singing In the Rain" number. Can't help but feel GREAT, and tap your toes, and sing or hum, along, to that peppy gem! I FAR prefer the performance of the song in this film to how performed in the much later "Singing In the Rain" feature movie. In the 1929 film, I give everything about the extended number a perfect 10 score! The "Singing In the Rain" number at the end of this film, featuring big stars of the day, is also enjoyable to watch, though it's the long feature section (I think 6-some minutes) in I believe it's the late mid-section of the film that both my mother and I REALLY seriously enjoyed.
