Singin’ in the Rain on the Big Screen: Fans React

On July 12, 2012, Turner Classic Movies (TCM), Fathom Events, and a helluva lot of Americans celebrated the 60th anniversary of Singin’ in the Rain (1952) together in cinemas around the country.

So many Gene Kelly fans around the country… @videosawyer: Is it weird to do a tribute to Gene Kelly with no dancing in it ? Yes....

That’s right; devoted to his bum are individual tumblelogs and Facebook pages, recurring hashtags, animated gifs, and dozens upon dozens of tweets. Regarding the latter, a few recent cases in point: Gene Kelly had a most spectacular ass. Watching it is akin to a religious experience. (via @phoenix_emrys) Gene Kelly’s...
