West Newton Cinema presents Ty Burr’s Movie Club: “It’s Always Fair Weather”

November 14 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm

If “Singin’ in the Rain” is regarded as the high-water mark of the MGM musical, (and one of the great all-time movies), this reunion of star Gene Kelly and director Stanley Donen is the studio’s brilliant best-kept secret. Kelly, Dan Dailey and Michael Kidd play three ex-GI pals who meet up ten years after WWII and discover they can’t stand each other — until a “This Is Your Life” TV producer (Cyd Charisse) gets them on national television. A delightful discovery with some of the most eye popping song-and-dance number you’ll ever see. (Gene Kelly tap-dancing on roller skates — enough said.)

Ty Burr, former Boston Globe film critic and Pulitzer Prize finalist, presents this handpicked film screening at West Newton Cinema followed by an interactive group discussion.
