@Black Knight Fool I have to agree. They claim it's sexist even though the woman can agree to perform this or not... nobody is forcing her to sing and dance this way. Opinions are allowed you know? This kind of singing and dancing is so classy and fantastically talented its a shame its been trodden on by feminism.
I read somewhere that Gene Kelly used to reduce Debbie to tears on the set of Singin in the Rain because he considered her an inferior dance partner. It was Fred Astaire, who was rehearsing routines for Easter Parade in a neighbouring studio, who gave her a pep talk and encouraged her not to give up even though it was hard. Though he usually had a guard keeping people away from his practice space, he let her stay to watch how much trouble he had choreographing his latest routine; it made her realize that she could be a dancer too if she stuck with it and worked hard for it like he did.
@@fionatsang9353 That's not quite true. Astaire did find Reynolds crying and he did offer her help with her dancing, but he wouldn't have been rehearsing for Easter Parade at the time. Easter Parade came out before Kelly had even seen the script for Singing in the Rain and Reynolds wasn't even 'discovered' until 1948 (The year Easter Parade came out). If I had to make an educated guess, I would say Astaire was most likely working on The Belle of New York when Singing in the rain was rehearsing.
Putting the lovely, talented Debbie aside for just a moment, my compliments also go to the marvelous, handsome group of dancers with watchable expressions and steps.
Yes, I always wonder what happened to the many troupes of dancers who supported stars in such films. A dancer's professional life is not usually long, so I always wonder how they fared.
@Emi Smith - maybe, but maybe not. I just looked up the bios of the male dancers in 'Seven brides for Seven brothers' and all were straight, got married, had children, etc. All of them.
@@annmary964 - As many girls who were 'athletic' and had ballet training, she was slim and had nice toned arms and legs. She was only 5 ft. 2 inches and was perfectly proportioned for that height.
This reminds me so much of "Diamonds are a girls best friend" by Marilyn, and both films are from the same year... were film companies spying and copying each other?
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes was produced by Fox, a big film studio that competed with MGM and their award winning musical units. While both films were released in the same year, I Love Melvin(1953) was made earlier and this fancy musical sequence was probably swiped by a person that worked at Fox. The sequences are too much alike for it to be just a coincidence.
@@sisterluke Yes, they are too much alike to be a coincidence. Both ladies made a wonderful job, though I prefer Marilyn's (and the lyrics of Marilyn's song too), I love Debbie's too, each lady in her particular and unique style, each one contributing to the legendary old Hollywood Musicals. We will never see a new film of this kind, not even La La Land , which I also love but is in another style..
@@Fancylooks Gentlemen Prefer Blondes(1953) was the bigger movie as it had its A- team(director Howard Hawks, Monroe and Jane Russell) and Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend was the better song and musical number. I Love Melvin(1953) was a B-movie musical from MGM that was made quickly after Singin' in Rain to cash in on the popularity of Donald O'Conner and Debbie Reynolds.
In the original gentleman prefer blondes scene Marilyn was supposed to wear a sheer gold dress with diamonds placed in specific areas, but Marilyn wore a similar outfit to an award show before the movie was filmed totally n the outcry against the outfit was total... She was mocked for looking too sexual (Joan Crawford went for her in tbe press) so fox decided to go for a simpler outfit that didn't cling to her with simple lines (hence the pink outfit that is a lil bit big for her with the bow).... I think they may have got the idea from this but maybe not... Both are awesome :)
I’m an 80s/90s child and had absolutely NO IDEA that Debbie Reynolds was so beautiful and glamorous in her younger years! Or that she did these types of films... I guess I knew of her but didn’t know what she was famous for... Not to downplay her appearance as an older woman, but this is like seeing pics of a gorgeous young Martha Stewart, just like WOW! WHO KNEW?!
Ya mean like...the people on tik tok do? Cuz that’s what her movements remind me of... I STILL LOVE DEBBY REYNOLDS I JUST WANNA KNOW IF YOU THOUGHT THE SAME THING-
To have danced with Donald O'Connor and Gene Kelly...two experienced and well seasoned dancers and holding her own was truly amazing...what a woman, what a talent!
The sweetness of her voice. The feminity and delicacy held in every single movement, gesture and expression of her performance, plus such an awesomely choreographed dance part and impeccable singing. Everything about this is so damn perfect and flawless. I could watch it countless times a day all day and never get tired of the beautiful Debbie Reynolds leaving me incredibly stunned and in awe of her beauty and talent over again.
It’s fine to like finery, and Debbie Reynolds does charming work in this number, and the gentleman, accentuate the positives, love their supporting dance moves. Nice to be made over a little 👍🎶❣️
She was addictive. Seriously I can’t watch only one of her videos. Marilyn was a goddess in “Diamonds are a girls best friend” but Debbie was beyond beautiful, she was corky, youthful, funny, everything.
@@Michelle-pn9xt i mean obviously they had to add their own twist to the outfits, but i think what the person who wrote the comment meant was that the whole act had a similar energy as marilyn's performance
Love the way all the male dancers look at her especially the man who always look at her with a big smile Its really really make everything more than better
FerGarza88 Gentlemen prefer Blondes came out the same year but these two movies are from competing studios so they might have been trying to match each other.
You can sing in a corset, people did and people do. Also, singing is a moot point in classic movie musicals because they are syncing their lips to a prerecorded track
I love the sound of her voice. So clear and easy to understand. It's rare to hear such diction nowadays. It's very fine and beautifully precise. I love how back then people in the public eye made an effort to enunciate and sound classy. It just sounds so respectable because it's polished and precise. If I can afford it perhaps I'd get my future children some vocal training. I don't mind local accents at all, but if nowadays you have a classic glamorously refined voice like Debbie Reynolds or Deborah Kerr or Julie Andrews or Marni Nixon I expect most people everywhere will be charmed, even if you don't sound like others. A little finishing school can go a long way, and fine manners are hard to master if you don't grow up with them. I'd love to marry a woman with a voice like that.
In film musicals the orchestra is recorded first and the vocals we hear are added later in a sound booth, with the person singing, matching as well as they can, what was filmed. Her vocals would have been recorded in a sound booth. The reason why they are so easy to understand, and there is a slightly hollow dead sound to the singing is that what you hear in the finished film, is not what they were singing when they were filmed. Very few artist perform their musical vocals live. Rex Harrison did it in My Fair Lady and Streisand recorded My Man live in Funny Girl. Can't think of anyone else.
she has the most beautiful voice I could listen to this over and over without getting tired, I love Debbie Reynolds forgotten about how pretty she looks too, shame that Hollywood no longer does films like this. I adore this era when women wore the most beautiful clothes hats gloves everything was just so glamorous. ❤
Just look at our little Debbie Reynolds - cute as a button, so very pretty, lively and versatile. She could sing, dance, play comedy till you are rolling in the aisles with laughter and even beat the best in heavy drama. This Warner Archive excerpt is extraordinary for its gorgeous color and clarity and with Debbie in it, it becomes more precious and beautiful. A legend in the acting field, Debbie is not to be missed in The Unsinkable Molly Brown, The Catered Affair and the Broadway hit, Mary, Mary co-starring that genius of acting Barry Nelson and pretty Diane McBain as the other woman.
Pure class and such a true lady. Met her a couple of times. So down to earth and absolutely gorgeous. My kids love her movies still to this very day. Talent beyond compare.
I have been watching this video over and over and as cute as she is, this number wouldn’t work without the quality dancers and choreography around . These guys make it look very classy.

All of the things I may mention of! And most of all, a lady loves to love! A lady loves her phobias, She has complexity, She will insist! It gives her things to talk about with her psychiatrist Incidentally whenever she drops her glove Gentlemen know what she's thinking of That most of all a lady loves to love And what is more a lady loves to live And what is more lady lives to love.
I wish they still did these kind of glamorous productions...
I think Madonna put a bullet into the head of this sort of musical production

@Babyhowdy233 *Your AVATAR, Proves you to be Gaaaayyyy!*
@Babyhowdy233 You've spend a lot of thought on this.
For someone who had no dance training prior to Hollywood she's a great dancer!

she was so beautiful and so naturally
Yeahh she was so classic!
And funny, there is a lot of humor in this number
@Black Knight Fool facts
むっちゃ、思うわ！
She’s unnaturally skinny though. It’s sad that woman were not allowed to just be a healthy weight back then. They contractually had to be underweight.
Putting the lovely, talented Debbie aside for just a moment, my compliments also go to the marvelous, handsome group of dancers with watchable expressions and steps.
Yes, I always wonder what happened to the many troupes of dancers who supported stars in such films. A dancer's professional life is not usually long, so I always wonder how they fared.
Yes, and all the men looked hetero and not gay like so many male background dancers do today.
@Emi Smith - maybe, but maybe not. I just looked up the bios of the male dancers in 'Seven brides for Seven brothers' and all were straight, got married, had children, etc. All of them.
Precision despite complexity like a fine Swiss watch, and Prussian self-discipline and propriety.

Her legs! Omg.
I’m over here like her everything! Omg.
its called wearing heels and being slim honey.
She was not tall, but rather small/medium height, but her body was perfect!

Oh, you should definitely watch Singing In the Rain! It's such a classic. And it totally holds up. :)
One thing: Sailor Moon Tuxedo Man
😆😆😆😆
Tuxedo mask
Not man he was just a teenager
Ha my thoughts exactly!!
I THOUGHT THAT TOO
I think Tuxedo Mask is based more on "Arsène Lupin" than this movie.
There's something so fluid and energetic about her physicality here ... you can't take her eyes off her.
Well said! I couldn’t agree more. Something so distinctively vivacious about the way she moves ❤︎
Yeah, she bounces around like she is walking on a trampoline but it doesn't look goofy, it looks intentional and sassy.
Movies need more of these one-shot scenes again...
She comes off as futuristic...ahead of her time, like a kid from today trying to act vintage if it makes sense lol
I always get that sense! You worded it perfectly
Ya mean like...the people on tik tok do? Cuz that’s what her movements remind me of...
I STILL LOVE DEBBY REYNOLDS I JUST WANNA KNOW IF YOU THOUGHT THE SAME THING-
candy lover12 no not really TikTok related, she’s very modern looking and acting for her time even her facial features if that makes sense ...
Like me
BleSSed aw darn, I was really hopin it was like you were thinking what I’m thinking. That does make sense tho! You’re totally right
To have danced with Donald O'Connor and Gene Kelly...two experienced and well seasoned dancers and holding her own was truly amazing...what a woman, what a talent!
she hated kelly and rightfully so.
And Fosse!
@@brianwolle2509 Why is that?
he was an A-1 JERK! she said her feet were bleeding. look it up!

Good ear ;)
Great lady Debbie! she is already missed but will be always remembered..:)
People flocked to the movie houses to watch Debbie Reynolds sing and dance.
Thank goodness for RUclips that we can still see glamour
That movie is showing on Turner Classic Movies today, 8/06/2023.
The dressing is stunning!
shes a queen. shes always been a hollywood star. then and even into her later years. rest in peace debby :(
The dress, the jewels, the tone.. the whole vibe of this looks a bit like Marylin"s song in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes :D
And they're in the same year lol
Not at all. Marilyn was curvy. He r outfit was not like this.
i thought it was marilyn at first lol

Yes exactly my first thought the Judt Garland number from Ziegfield Follies
'Material Girl' anyone? :P
Bronwyn Lindsay maybe
The very talented Debbie was always fantastic; and her performances a total joy to watch.
it reminds so much of Marilyn singing Diamonds are girls' best friends!!
No
Yikes!
That because this came out first so they copied it. :)
And Madonna's 'material girl'
Mélina Charlet I thought the same thing!
Love love love Debbie Reynolds. She was so talent. She can sing and dance. Even do comedy.
her voice is so calming
they had beautiful expressions in their music and their voices have the most beautiful expressions too , i wish they still make these kind of music
Her dress is a beautiful explosion of purple 💜
She have also a warm and lovely voice
Debbie Reynolds looks amazing, beautiful, classy, dressy and elegant. She is so fabulous.
She’s so beautiful!
I❤️ 1950's movies
OMG, her waistline must have been a double zero! So petite!
Anna Belnap No. They wore girdles or corsets.
Her waist is still small so it doesn't matter.
corsets were a thing

Shame youtube doesn't keep track of how many times you watch a specific video. This really needs to be added to spotify.
In case you haven't realised, it already is in spotify as well as the "singing in the rain"

Here are the lyrics to the song if you want to sing along, like i do.
A Lady Loves lyrics:
We are the gentlemen of the press!
Yes we are, yes we are.
Yes indeed, indeed we are!
Our editor sent us to you!
To interview you!
For Judy LeRoy, you're America's pride and joy
You're the prettiest, wittiest, glamour girl by far
Yes you are, yes you are!
Yes indeed, indeed, you are.
The fact that we, want us be, positively feminine,
We don't want to know when you have tea if you put cream or lemon in.
Well the facts I give are genuinely, intimately, feminine.
A lady loves expensive clothes
And pretty jewels and furs and french chapeaus
She loves her lingerie in black it suits her zodiac
Loves a penthouse where she'll be content to stay
Finds little gifts on her breakfast tray
But now and then pack and sail away
For a simple Riveria holiday
A lady loves beaucoup l'amour, but first of all she loves to be secure
And she adores the subtle phrase that it's the man who pays
Yet there's one final thought she would place above.
All of the things I may mention of!
And most of all, a lady loves to love!
A lady loves her phobias,
She has complexity,
She will insist!
It gives her things to talk about with her psychiatrist
Incidentally whenever she drops her glove
Gentlemen know what she's thinking of
That most of all a lady loves to love
And what is more a lady loves to live
And what is more lady lives to love.
Thank you for the lyrics.
Awwwww, Debbie. You were so exquisitely beautiful. We miss you. 😭
She was a lovely woman, sweet and elegant and classy.
I love this musical number. Thanks a lot for posting this amazing clip.
Wow! She’s definitely Carrie Fishers’ Mum. Absolutely gorgeous. 😍
I feel like this song was beyond its time.
This dress was ahead of its time
Wow, what a family full of talent
stunning, beautiful & talented
I love those gowns back then, and the musical numbers
When I tell people this is the grandmother from Halloweentown, they look so surprised.
Debbie Reynold’s shining hour on film by a country mile.
Nobody could do musicals like MGM. Metro produced so many talented legends
Omgosh her granddaughter Billie looks just like her at that age! I miss Debbie & Carrie so much
Lol Billie doesn't hold a candle to her grandmothers beauty. Billie looks like a washed up haven't slept in 92 hours bassett hound in comparison
RIP to lovely Debbie. Gone 4 years ago today 💜
Debbie was so beautiful and so talented ♥ forever missed ♥
1:30 omg for a second I thought the guy on the right hand corner had a smartphone on his hands and she was posing for him 😅
This is really wonderful to see and hear ❤️ !!!
One of my favorite Debbie numbers
It breaks me when she says a lady loves love because she said I believe in love but after 3 strikes I’m out
The begining is so glamorous omg
she’s so beautiful 💕
