Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly) is a popular silent film star with humble roots as a “hoofer” and stuntman. Don barely tolerates his vain, cunning, spoiled, conniving, and shallow leading lady, Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen), though their studio, Monumental Pictures, links them romantically to increase their popularity. Lina is convinced that they are in love, despite Don’s protestations otherwise.Singin’ in the Rain 1952 Movie Download.
At the premiere of their latest film, The Royal Rascal, Don tells the gathered crowd a version of his life story, including his motto: “Dignity, always dignity.” His words are humorously contradicted by flashbacks showing him alongside his best friend Cosmo Brown (Donald O’Connor) (“Fit as a Fiddle”). To escape from his fans after the premiere, Don jumps into a passing car driven by Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds). She drops him off, but not before claiming to be a stage actress and sneering at his “undignified” accomplishments as a movie star.Singin’ in the Rain 1952 Movie Download.
Later, at an after-party, the head of Don’s studio, R.F. Simpson (Millard Mitchell), shows a short demonstration of a talking picture,[a] but his guests are unimpressed. To Don’s amusement, Kathy pops out of a mock cake right in front of him, revealing herself to be a chorus girl (“All I Do is Dream of You”). Furious at Don’s teasing, she throws a cake at him, accidentally hitting Lina in the face, and then flees. Don becomes smitten with Kathy and searches for her for weeks, with Cosmo trying to cheer him up (“Make ‘Em Laugh”). While filming a romantic scene, a jealous Lina reveals that her influence is behind Kathy’s loss of work and subsequent disappearance. On the studio lot, Cosmo finally finds Kathy quietly working in another Monumental Pictures production (“Beautiful Girl”) and they reconcile. Don sings her a love song, and she confesses to having been a fan of his all along (“You Were Meant for Me”).After rival studio Warner Bros. has an enormous hit with its first talking picture, the 1927 film.Singin’ in the Rain 1952 Movie Download.
