Gene Kelly was one of the most important artists of the 20th Century. He changed not only how dance was filmed (making the camera PART of dance and choreography), but cultural perception.. The entire contemporary questioning of what is "allowed" or "not allowed" according to one's gender started with this man and his determination to break down those prejudices. Kelly is probably the single most influential dancer of all time in the number of dancers he has inspired. He worked consciously to create relevancy in his work. And because he succeeded in doing that his work is Timeless because it is Always Relevant.
A Brilliant and very nice man. Gorgeous to look at! And wonderful to watch and listen too. There will never be another Gene. He is and was unique. Love and miss you Gene. You are always in my thoughts. Thank you for all your wonderful films. You always make things feel a lot better when I watch your films. 🌹🌹🌹
He looked great in this interview. Gene Kelly will always be my favourite OH actor and for me he is (was) the best dancer of all time. Singin' in the Rain will remain the greatest musical of all time no other musical will ever come close to this masterpiece. Thank you Gene for bringing so much joy to our lives with your wonderful movies. Its been 27 years since you left us, but we will never forget you. A true class act in Hollywood history he changed the landscape of musical movies forever.
I heard somewhere he had a very high fever while filming the dance sequence for singing in the rain. Man if I have a fever I can barely get myself out of bed! What a talent!
Can you imagine that when I was younger I could not see myself watching these kind of movies but now that im in my 60s I just love watching these kind of movies. just wonderful movies these are!!
I've been watching all the magnificent Hollywood classic movies since I was just five years of age and I'm fifty years of age in April 2020 just sit back relax and enjoy.🌹✊🕊️🙏🇬🇧💎😎💐
Special performer and even director who choreographed camera as well as dances! I often screen Singin' in the Rain for my students who appreciate his amazing talents and exuberance for life!
Gene Kelly was a terrific dancer! He will glide when he dances! In my opinion he was the best dancer and tapdancer of all time. Plus a very handsome man. Thanks for posting this video.
I thought he was handsome too! The funny thing is, he wasn't considered attractive enough to be a leading man in Hollywood when he first started acting. Weird, right?!
@@kugelweg He's the leading man who gets the girl in his first movie, "For Me and My Gal." When he played Pal Joey on Broadway his character's nickname was Beauty, so I disagree respectfully.
My oh my... if you've nothing else to be proud of but of another man's life achievement or where this man used to live, then it's like to adorn yourself with borrowed plumes. You must've failed miserably in your own life.
Magnificent actors and actresses and such panache it's so sad that we all have to age and eventually pass on to the next life and hopefully a more peaceful one with no hunger and war etc etc etc God bless each and every single person past, present and future always!.🌹✊🕊️🙏🇬🇧💎😎👍
Back in the day my father very much enjoyed the performers of that era, my dad is now gone as are most of these actors, now we are stuck with, the likes of justin B, Nikki M, the Kardashians etc, etc. Now I really have a better understanding of the entertainers of a bygone era....

Tremendo actor y bailsrin lo ultimo que lo vi fue enxanadu con olivia neton jony bailaronlos dos me encanta esa pelicula y los tres actores principales
And?! Where or to whom somebody is or was born doesn't matter, dude, it's neither an achievement nor somebody's fault! It's the 21st century. When will you racists ever get over people's lineages?
@@Claude-Eckel - He was of Irish & German descent..Lineage is important. Genealogy is what helps people learn of their history and where they come from. It's one of the biggest part of who we are. Why is that racist?
People who are commemorated after their death did something that stood out. The rest of us will be remembered for nothing because we never did anything impactful. We are but useless beings on earth who take oxygen from those who make some type of change. The realization of this makes people depressed and the people who arent depressed are oblivious and their brain stores that realization away for their sake so how will we ever cure depression? We think pills and therapy helps but no. Only someone who is in depression can save themself.
Gene when he dances he spins, he twirls, he leaps, he flies. Then while he dances he choreographers his stories. He will always be the second because Fred Astaire is THE MASTER! FRED ASTAIRE IS ALWAYS THE FIRST. ASTAIRE IS THE GREATEST DANCER EVER! My name is Cynthia Taylor and I know who are the best! Best dancer; Fred Astaire, Best Actor; Lawrence Olivier, Best Actress; Kathleen Hepburn, Best Director; that's tough because there is John Ford, Billy Wilder, Frank Capra, George Stevens, George Cukor, Howard Hawks, Vincent Millinelli. Best Movie is Casablanca but I love Saratoga Trunk with Gary Cooper, Ingrid Bergman, Flores Robson. Saratoga has tempo, staged acting, set designs and Gary Cooper's humor.
To Mark Govanelli: Your ignorance is a tragic. Obnoxious remarks that are ridiculous and absolutely incorrect. Both Gene and Fred were wonderful dancers! But their styles were so different. They cannot be compared. I suggest you watch Mr. Kelly's films again. You must have been asleep the first time!!
every musical he was in was terrible and corny and he was lucky to have made a living off such non creative dancing and bad acting .Fred Astaire was the man and made gene look like a out of place plumber tryng pretend he could dance and act.
Gene Kelly, he was fantastic. Miss him so. Hope the next few generations don't forget him.
Whatever movie he was in, he filled me with happiness and joy. Still does after all these years.

Oh how I miss real entertainment. Rest in Peace, Mr. Kelly.
I had a very serious dance career and Gene Kelly was my IDOL! He influenced me unlike no other dancer. I love and miss him.
A Brilliant and very nice man.
Gorgeous to look at! And wonderful to watch and listen too.
There will never be another Gene. He is and was unique. Love and miss you Gene. You are always in my thoughts.
Thank you for all your wonderful films.

Lady T I think Fred Astaire was the best but Gene a close 2nd imo
@@kugelweg He was a leading man in every move he ever made-Sex Symbol as well as a great artist.
Actually no he wasn't. He was not considered attractive at first, like many other performers in his day.
@@kugelweg He's the leading man who gets the girl in his first movie, "For Me and My Gal." When he played Pal Joey on Broadway his character's nickname was Beauty, so I disagree respectfully.
Very proud to share a hometown with him!

I just love Gene with all my heart & soul, sigh 😍😍😍❤❤❤

Beautiful man.
Fantástico dançarino, ator.... adorei vê-lo também em Xanadu!
*Top three of all time: Gene, Fred, and Donald O!*
When I think in a perfect performance, then, Gene Kelly comes out. He was Mr. Perfection.
Amazing guy.
Gene oh my He did it all.
Que en paz descanses geen kelli una admiradora apesar de no ser de tu epoca pero veo tus peliculas y tus mejores dotes de cantante actor y bailarin un artisya completo
He was perfect.
Perfect ? You must be joking. Great hoofer. But he could be a very nasty man.
Uno de los artistas mas completos que han existido ¡¡¡

In MY Heaven I can dance. And my partner has been waiting for me for a very long time. Le sigh.
And now the Oscar goes too!! YEAH..it just goes to any one these days..
What happened to Gene Kelly
Also he was irish
I'm singing in the rain
And?! Where or to whom somebody is or was born doesn't matter, dude, it's neither an achievement nor somebody's fault! It's the 21st century. When will you racists ever get over people's lineages?
Andy Kashu daddy, chill.
It never hurts to be Irish! ☘️

please any one know name of music in this video began 0.35
It's called "that's entertainment" from the bandwagon. Or in connection to Gene Kelly the opening of the series That' entertainment.
@@michelleangel6948 i can't how to thank you enough bro you are the best i am mostafa from egypt and you have favour on me ask any thing ♡♡

But their styles were so different. They cannot be compared.

You must have been asleep the first time!!
Totally! Maybe he's thinking of Donald Trump!
Wonder why he picked out women who were not glamorous and mannish looking?
every musical he was in was terrible and corny and he was lucky to have made a living off such non creative dancing and bad acting .Fred Astaire was the man and made gene look like a out of place plumber tryng pretend he could dance and act.
Even trolling is kinda art. And you failed in it... I pity you...
