本片是美國好萊塢歌舞片時代最杰出的代表作品,它不僅巧妙地揶揄和諷刺了好萊塢在從默片時代到有聲電影轉折期的混亂狀況,同時也集中羅列了大量美國20世紀20年代末到30年代大蕭條時期歌舞電影的懷舊歌曲,加以重新編曲,配以現(xiàn)代舞蹈,創(chuàng)造出許多膾炙人口、引為經典的歌與舞。
本片除了在音樂和舞蹈上的杰出成就之外,其難能可貴之處還在于影片很巧妙地把對好萊塢體制的反思和對好萊塢精華的吸收融合在了一起,成為好萊塢歌舞片中集大成的不朽經典。
《Singin' In The Rain》雨中曲歌詞:
I'm singing in the rain
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart
And I'm ready for love
Fit as a fiddle
All I do is dream of you beautiful girl
You were meant for me
You are my lucky star
Moses Good morning Singin' in the rain
Would you go out
For love Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Come on with the rain
I've a smile on my face
I'll walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
Singing, singing in the rain In the rain.
La...
I'm singing in the rain
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
I walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
I'm singing, singing in the rain
In the rain In the rain
Fit as a fiddle All I do is dream of you beautiful girl
You were meant for me
You are my lucky star Moses
Good morning Singin' in the rain
Would you Waka laka laka wa
Waka laka laka wa...
Ole, toro, Bravo!
