Ann Miller


To me she was the star who made this movie enjoyable for me. Kathryn Grayson just doesn't do anything for me as an actress. Great singer, but I"m not an opera fan. I wish Ann had a bigger role, but she had some great song and dance acts. She was just incredible!

Yes, and those legs WOW.

I will never understand why she & Gene Kelly never danced together. They were in a couple of group dances in On the Town, but they never did a duet. That would have been a classic.

Probably because Gene Kelly had an issue with female dancing partners not being taller than he was. Ann Miller was definitely taller than Kelly.

She's one of the greatest "lesser known" stars of the golden Hollywood era, for sure.

I love her.

She would have danced with Kelly in Easter Parade, if he haden't broken his ankle.
