Singin' in the rain
Just singin' in the rain
What a glorious feelin'
We're happy again
We'll walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
And singin' Just singin' in the rain
This is Dora Bailey...
talking to you from the front of the Chinese Theater in Hollywood.
What a night, ladies and gentlemen!
Every star in Hollywood's heaven is here...
to make Monumental Pictures' premiere of 'The Royal Rascal'...
the outstanding event of 1927.
Everyone is breathlessly awaiting...
the arrival of Lina Lamont and Don Lockwood.
Look who's arriving now!
It's that famous Zip Girl of the screen...
the darling of the flapper set, Zelda Zanders.
Zelda! Oh, Zelda!
With her new red-hot pash, J. Cumberland Spendrill III...
that well-known eligible bachelor.
Zelda's had so much unhappiness.
I hope this time it's really love.
And here comes that exotic star, Olga Mara...
and her new husband, the Baron de la Bonnet de la Toulon.
They've been married two months already...
but still as happy as newlyweds.
Well, well, well.
It's Cosmo Brown!
Cosmo is Don Lockwood's best friend.
He plays the piano for Don and Lina to get them into those romantic moods.
Oh, folks, this is it!
The stars of tonight's picture, those romantic lovers of the screen...
Don Lockwood and Lina Lamont!
Ladies and gentlemen, when you look at this gorgeous couple...
it's no wonder they're a household name all over the world...
like bacon and eggs.
Lockwood and Lamont.
Don, you can tell me confidentially...
are these rumors true that wedding bells are soon to ring for you and Lina?
Lina and I have no statement to make right now. We're just good friends.
You've come a long way together, Don. Won't you tell us how it all happened?
Well, Lina and I have made a number of pictures together...
No, no, Don. I want your story from the beginning.
Dora, not in front of all these people.
Yes!
But, Don, the story of your success is an inspiration...
to young people all over the world.
- Please. - Yes!
Well, to begin with, any story of my career...
would have to include my lifelong friend, Cosmo Brown!
We were kids together, grew up together, worked together.
Yes?
Well, Dora, I've had one motto which I've always lived by:
Dignity.
Always dignity.
This was instilled in me by Mom and Dad from the very beginning.
They sent me to the finest schools, including dancing school.
That's where I first met Cosmo.
And with him, I used to perform for all of Mom and Dad's society friends.
They used to make such a fuss over me.
If I was good, I was allowed to accompany Mom and Dad to the theater.
They brought me up on Shaw, Moliere...
the finest of the classics.
To this was added musical training at the Conservatory of Fine Arts.
We rounded out our apprenticeship...
at the most exclusive dramatics academy.
And at all times...
the motto remained: Dignity.
Always dignity.
In a few years, Cosmo and I embarked on a dance concert tour.
We played the finest symphonic halls in the country.
Fit as a fiddle and ready for love
I can jump over the moon up above
Fit as a fiddle and ready for love
Haven't a worry, haven't a care
Feel like a feather that's floatin' on air
Fit as a fiddle and ready for love
Soon the church bells will be ringin'
And a march with Ma and Pa
All the church bells will be ringin'
With a hey-nonny-nonny and a hot-cha-cha
Hi-diddle-diddle, my baby's okay
Ask me a riddle, I'm happy to say
Fit as a fiddle and ready for love
Audiences everywhere adored us.
Finally, we decided to come to sunny California.
We were stranded...
We were staying here when the offers from movie studios started pouring in.
We sorted them out and decided to favor Monumental Pictures.
Okay, Lina, you hate him. Keep that mood music going.
Phil, you come in. Keep on grinding. Now you see her.
Now here's the bit, Bert, where you get it on the jaw.
Cut! No, no! That wasn't right, Bert!
You were supposed to go over the bar and crash into the glasses!
Try it again, okay, Bert? Bert!
Oh, that's just swell!
Take him away, fellas. You'll be all right, Bert.
We've lost more darn stuntmen on this picture!
It'll take hours to get a new one over from central casting!
Mr. Dexter, I can do that.
- You're a musician! - That's a moot point.
No kidding! What's your name?
Don Lockwood, sir, but the fellas call me Donald.
Wise guy, huh? Okay, I'll try you.
Get this guy into Bert's suit!
And remember, Lockwood, you might be trading that fiddle in for a harp!
Camera!
Phil, come in! Now you see him!
Here's where you get it right on the jaw!
Cut! That was wonderful!
You got any more little chores you want done?
Plenty.
My roles in these films were urbane...
sophisticated, suave.
And of course, all through those pictures...
Lina was, as always, an inspiration to me.
Warm and helpful. A real lady.
Hello, Miss Lamont. I'm Don Lockwood, the stuntman.
It was sure a thrill working with you, Miss Lamont.
Don, I want you to meet the producer of the picture, Mr. R.F. Simpson.
I just saw some rushes for the picture and asked Dexter who the stuntmen were.
He told me they were all you.
I'm putting you and Lina together in a picture. Come to my office.
- We'll discuss a contract. - Thanks, Mr. Simpson!
Are you doing anything tonight, Miss Lamont?
Well, that's funny. I'm busy.
Lina and I have had the same wonderful relationship ever since.
But most important of all, I continue living up to my motto:
Dignity.
Always dignity.
Thank you, Don.
And I'm sure you and Lina will continue making movie history tonight...
in your greatest picture, 'The Royal Rascal.'
Get enough, boys?
She's so refined.
I think I'll kill myself.
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
We're pretty darn thrilled at your response to 'The Royal Rascal.'
We had fun making it, and we hope you had fun seeing it tonight.
We screen actors aren't much good at speaking in public...
so we'll just act out our thanks.
It's a smash, eh, Mr. Simpson?
- Don. Lina, you were gorgeous. - You look pretty good for a girl.
For heaven's sake, what's the big idea?
Can't a girl get a word in edgewise? After all, they're my public too!
The publicity department, Rod here, thought it would be much better...
if Don made the speeches for the team.
Why?
You're a beautiful woman. Audiences think you've got a voice to match.
The studio's gotta keep their stars from looking ridiculous at any cost.
- No one's got that much money. - What's wrong with the way I talk?
What's the big idea? Am I dumb or something?
No. It's just that Don's had so much more experience...
Next time, write me out a speech. I could memorize it.
Why don't you go out now and recite the Gettysburg Address?
What do you know about it, you piano player? Are you anybody?
Donnie, how can you let him talk to me like that, your fiancée?
My fian...
Now, Lina, you've been reading those fan magazines again.
You shouldn't believe all that banana oil...
that Dora Bailey and the columnists dish out.
Now try to get this straight. There is nothing between us.
There has never been anything between us. Just air.
Oh, Donnie, you don't mean that.
Come on. We'll be late for R.F.'s party.
You better go in separate cars to break up the mobs, huh?
Ta-ta, Donnie! See ya there!
Donnie. What's wrong with that girl? Can't she take a gentle hint?
Haven't you heard? She's irresistible. She told me so herself.
I can't shake her. This cooked-up romance, just for publicity.
The price of fame. You've got the glory.
You've gotta take the little heartaches that go with it. Look at me.
I got no glory. I got no fame. I got no mansions. I got no money.
But I've got... What have I got?
- I don't know. What? - I gotta get outta here.
Don't tell me. It's a flat tire.
I don't understand. This car hasn't given me trouble for six hours.
There's Don Lockwood!
- Give me your autograph! - Hi, kids!
I want a souvenir!
- I want a souvenir too! - Hold on there!
You're tearing my...
Hey, Cos, call me a cab!
Okay, you're a cab.
Thanks a lot!
- Lady, keep driving. - Get out of here!
- I'll call the police! - Don't do that.
- Don't hurt me! - I'm not a criminal.
You are a criminal! I've seen that face before.
- You're a famous gangster! - Let me explain...
I've seen your picture in the post office. Officer!
This man jumped into my car...
- Why, it's Don Lockwood! - Don Lockwood?
- Out for a joyride? - Just a lift, Officer.
My car broke down, I got surrounded...
You're a lucky lady. Anything wrong?
- Why, no. - I should think not. Good night.
Good night, Officer.
Well, thanks for saving my life. I'll get out now.
I'm driving to Beverly Hills. Can I drop you someplace?
I'd like to get out of this torn suit if you're going by Camden and Sunset.
Yes, I am.
I'd very much like to know whose hospitality I'm enjoying.
Selden. Kathy Selden.
Enchanted, Miss Selden.
I'm sorry I frightened you.
I was getting a little too much love from my adoring fans.
Oh, that's what you were running away from.
They did that to you? That's terrible.
Yes, it is, isn't it?
It is terrible.
Well, we movie stars get the glory.
I guess we have to take the little heartaches that go with it.
People think we lead lives of glamour and romance...
but we're really lonely.
Terribly lonely.
Mr. Lockwood, I can't tell you how sorry I am about taking you for a criminal...
but it was understandable under the circumstances.
- I knew I'd seen you. - Which of my pictures have you seen?
I don't remember. I saw one once.
- You saw one once? - You were dueling.
There was a girl, Lina Lamont. Though I don't go to the movies much.
If you've seen one, you've seen them all.
- Thank you. - No offense.
Movies are entertaining enough for the masses...
but the personalities on the screen just don't impress me.
They don't talk, they don't act. They just make a lot of dumb show.
Well, you know.
Like that.
You mean, like what I do?
Well, yes.
Here we are, Sunset and Camden.
Wait a minute. You mean, I'm not an actor?
- Pantomime on the screen isn't acting? - Of course not.
Acting means great parts, wonderful lines, speaking those glorious words.
- Words. - Shakespeare, Ibsen.
What's your lofty mission in life that lets you sneer at my humble profession?
Well, I'm an actress. On the stage.
Oh, on the stage.
I'd like to see you act. What are you in now?
I could brush up on my English or bring along an interpreter...
if they'd let in a movie actor.
I'm not in a play now, but I will be. I'm going to New York...
You're going to New York. Someday we'll all hear of you, won't we?
Kathy Selden as Juliet, as Lady Macbeth, as King Lear.
You'll have to wear a beard for that one.
Laugh if you want to, but at least the stage is a dignified profession.
What are you so conceited about?
You're nothing but a shadow on film. You're not flesh and blood.
- Stop! - Why? I'm only a shadow.
Just because you're a big movie star...
you expect every girl to fall in a dead faint at your feet!
Well, don't you touch me!
Fear not, sweet lady. I will not molest you.
I am but a humble jester...
and you are too far above me.
Farewell, Ethel Barrymore.
I must tear myself from your side.
- Is this R.F. Simpson's house? - Yes, miss.
- I'm from the Coconut Grove. - Around the back, please.
I see. Thank you.
- Nice party, R.F. - Thanks, Roscoe.
Mr. Brown, do you really think you could get me in the movies?
- I should think so. - Really?
There's Don! I loved the picture tonight.
- Don, did you come by way of Australia? - Hello, Cos.
Listen, Cos, tell me the truth. Am I a good actor?
As long as I'm working for Monumental, you're the greatest.
You're my pal. You can tell me.
What's the matter? Of course you're good.
Maybe you should tell me from time to time.
- I feel a little shaken. - The new Don Lockwood.
Where have you been? We've been waiting for you.
There you are, Donnie. I was lonely.
- Hello, Lina. - Okay, fellas, hold it.
Together again, like two little stars. Don and Lina.
No kidding, folks. Aren't they great?
All right, open that screen.
- A movie? We've just seen one. - Hollywood law says we have to.
I've got a few little surprises for you tonight.
All right, everyone, sit down. This will give you a lot of laughs.
There's a madman coming into my office now for months, and...
- Got that gadget working, Sam? - All set, Mr. Simpson.
Okay, let her go.
Hello.
This is a demonstration of a talking picture.
Notice, it is a picture of me, and I am talking.
Note how my lips and the sound issuing from them...
are synchronized together...
in perfect unison.
- Who's that? - Somebody's talking behind that screen.
- Come out from there, Mr. Simpson. - No, I'm right here.
My voice has been recorded on a record.
A talking picture.
Thank you. Good-bye.
- Well? - It's just a toy.
- It's a scream! - It's vulgar.
- Think they'll ever use it? - I doubt it.
The Warner Brothers are making a whole talking picture, 'The Jazz Singer.'
They'll lose their shirts. What do you think, Dexter?
- It'll never amount to a thing. - They said that about automobiles.
Let's get on with the show, boys. Come on, my little starlets.
I have a delicious surprise. A very special cake.
I want you kiddies to have the first piece.
Well, if it isn't Ethel Barrymore.
I do hope you're gonna favor us with something special.
- Please. - Say Hamlet's soliloquy.
- Or a scene from 'Romeo and Juliet.' - Mr. Lockwood...
Don't be shy. You'd make about the prettiest Juliet I've ever seen, really.
All I do is dream of you the whole night through
With the dawn I still go on dreaming of you
You're every thought You're everything
You're every song I ever sing
Summer, winter, autumn and spring
And were there more than 24 hours a day
They'd be spent in sweet content dreaming away
When skies are gray When skies are blue
Morning, noon and nighttime too
All I do the whole day through is dream of you
You're the cat's meow!
All I do the whole day through is dream of you
- I have to tell you how good you were. - Excuse me.
Now that I know where you live, I'd like to see you home.
- Listen, Mr. Lockwood... - Say! Who is this dame?
Oh, someone lofty and far above us all.
She couldn't learn anything from the movies.
She's an actress on the legitimate stage.
Here's one thing I've learned from the movies!
Lina, she was aiming at me!
- You've never looked lovelier. - It was just an accident.
It happens to me five or six times a day.
Where is she?
Donnie?
Excuse me. Where'd Miss Selden go?
She just grabbed her things and vaulted. Anything I can do?
Sorry. I don't have time to find out.
Keep that action going. Let's have more steam in the kettle.
A little more action, boys. More steam and water in that kettle.
- Good morning, fellas. - Did you read 'Variety' today?
'First talking picture, The Jazz Singer, all-time smash by end of first week.'
- All-time flop by end of the second. - We start today.
- Good luck. - Thanks.
I am now Count Pierre de Battaille, better known as the Dueling Cavalier.
- What's this one about? - It's a French Revolution story.
You're a French aristocrat, and she's a simple girl of the people...
and she won't even give you a tumble.
Well, it's a living.
Hit him. Hit him.
Knock him down. Get up there and hit him again.
Why bother to shoot this picture? Release the old one under a new title.
If you've seen one, you've seen them all.
- What'd you say that for? - What's the matter?
That's what that Kathy Selden said to me that night.
That's three weeks ago. Are you still thinking about that?
- Well, I can't get her out of my mind. - How could you?
She's the first dame who hasn't fallen for your line since you were four.
- I guess she's on my conscience. - It's not your fault she lost her job.
- I've got to find her. - You've been trying to...
short of sending out bloodhounds and a posse.
Snap out of it. Don't let a little thing get you down.
You're Don Lockwood, aren't you? Donald Lockwood's an actor, isn't he?
What's the first thing an actor learns? The show must go on!
Come rain, come shine, come snow, come sleet, the show must go on!
Ridi, Pagliacci, ridi.
The world's so full of a number of things.
I'm sure we should all be as happy as...
But are we? No. Definitely no.
Positively no! Decidedly no!
Short people have long faces, and long people have short faces.
Big people have little humor, and little people have no humor at all.
And in the words of that immortal bard, Samuel J. Snodgrass...
as he was about to be led to the guillotine...
Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh
Don't you know everyone wants to laugh
My dad said Be an actor, my son
But be a comical one
They'll be standin' in lines
For those old honky-tonk monkeyshines
Now you could study Shakespeare and be quite elite
And you could charm the critics and have nothing to eat
Just slip on a banana peel The world's at your feet
Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Don't you know everyone wants to laugh
My grandpa said Go out and tell 'em a joke
But give it plenty of hoke
Make 'em roar make 'em scream
Take a fall, butt a wall split a seam
You start off by pretending you're a dancer with grace
You wiggle 'til they're giggling all over the place
And then you get a great big custard pie in the face
Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
Don't you... All the...
My dad...
They'll be standin' in lines
For those old honky-tonk monkeyshines
Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh
Don't you know everyone...
Make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh
Make 'em laugh
- Ready, Don? - All set, Roscoe.
Here we go again. I think we have another smash on our hands.
- I hope so. - You're darn tootin' we have.
- Where's Lina? - Here she is.
Well, well, here comes our lovely leading lady now.
This wig weighs a ton. What dope would wear a thing like this?
- Everybody used to wear them. - Then everybody was a dope.
Honey, you look beautiful.
Yes, you look great. Let's get into the set.
Thanks, Joe.
I looked for you the other night at Wally Ray's party.
- Where were you? - I've been busy.
And I know what you've been busy at... lookin' for that girl.
- As a matter of fact, yes. - Why?
- I've been worried about her. - You should've been worried about me.
After all, I'm the one who got the whipped cream in the kisser.
But you didn't lose your job, and she did.
You're darn tootin' she did. I arranged it.
What?
They weren't gonna fire her, so I called them and told them they'd better.
Okay, Don, remember.
You're madly in love with her, and you must overcome her shyness and timidity.
Cosmo, mood music.
Roll 'em!
Okay, Don. Now enter.
You see her. Run to her!
Why, you rattlesnake, you. You got that poor kid fired.
That's not all I'm gonna do if I ever get my hands on her.
I never heard of anything so low.
Fine. Looks great.
What did you do it for?
'Cause you liked her. I could tell.
So that's it.
Believe me, I don't like her half as much as I hate you.
You reptile.
Sticks and stones may break my bones...
I'd like to break every bone in your body.
You and who else, you big lummox?
Kiss her, Don.
That's it! More!
Great! Cut!
You couldn't kiss me like that and not mean it just a teensy bit.
Meet the greatest actor in the world. I'd rather kiss a tarantula!
- You don't mean that. - I don't...
Joe, bring me a tarantula. Listen, Lina...
Stop that chitchat, you lovebirds. Let's get another take.
Hold it!
- Hold it! - Hello, Mr. Simpson.
- We're really rolling. - Stop rolling at once.
All right, everybody, save it!
Tell them to go home. We're shutting down for a few weeks.
- What? - Don't just stand there, tell them!
Everybody go home until further notice! What is this?
- What's the matter, R.F.? - 'The Jazz Singer,' that's what.
My darlin' little mammy down in Alabamy
This is no joke, Cosmo. The public is screaming for more.
- More what? - Talking pictures!
- It's just a freak. - We should have such a freak here.
I told you talking pictures were a menace, but no one would listen to me.
Don, we're going to put our best feet forward.
We're going to make 'The Dueling Cavalier' into a talking picture.
That means I'm out of a job. I can start suffering and write that symphony.
We're putting you in as head of the new music department.
Thanks, R.F.! I can stop suffering and write that symphony.
Wait a second, Mr. Simpson. I think you should wait...
Every studio is jumping on the bandwagon.
Theaters are putting in sound equipment. We don't want to be left out.
- We know nothing about this gadget. - What do you have to know?
You do what you always did. You just add talking to it.
- Yeah? - Believe me, it will be a sensation.
'Lamont And Lockwood: They Talk.'
Well, of course we talk. Don't everybody?
I got a feelin' you're foolin'
I got a feelin' you're havin' fun
I'll get the go-by when you are done foolin' with me
It's a holiday, today's the wedding of the painted doll
It's a jolly day The news is spreading
Should I reveal exactly how I feel
Should I confess
Beautiful girl You're a lovely picture
Beautiful girl You're a gorgeous picture
Of all that lies under the big blue skies
My heart cries
That girl on his right looks familiar.
You're a dazzling eyeful
- I've featured her in nightclub shows. - That's probably where I've seen her.
She'd be good in the part of Zelda's kid sister.
- That's a good idea. - Excuse me.
There may be blondes and brunettes
That are hard to resist
You surpass them like a queen
You've got those lips that were meant to be kissed
And you're over sweet 16
Oh, beautiful girl What a gorgeous creature
Beautiful girl Let me call a preacher
What can I do
But give my heart to you
A beautiful girl is like a great work of art.
She's stylish.
She's chic.
And she also is smart
For lounging in her boudoir...
this simple, plain pajama.
Her cloak is trimmed with monkey fur...
to lend a dash of drama.
Anyone for tennis?
Well, this will make them cringe.
And you'll knock 'em dead at dinner...
if your gown just drips with fringe.
You simply can't be too modest...
at the beach or by the pool.
And in summertime it's organdy...
that'll keep you fresh and cool.
You'd never guess what loud applause...
this cunning hat receives.
And you'd never dream the things that you could hide...
within these sleeves.
A string of pearls with a suit of tweed.
It started quite a riot.
And if you must wear fox to the opera...
Dame Fashion says, 'Dye it.'
Black is best when you're in court.
The judge will be impressed
But white is right when you're a bride
And you want to be well-dressed
Beautiful girl
For you I've got a passion
Beautiful girl
You're my queen of fashion
I'm in a whirl
Over my beautiful
Girl
- That's stupendous! - Thanks.
- Kathy, come here. - This'll start a new trend in musicals.
Kathy, Mr. Simpson is thinking of casting you as Zelda's kid sister.
That's wonderful, Mr. Simpson.
- That's Kathy Selden! - Thanks anyway.
- Wait a minute. - That's all right.
Before Mr. Lockwood reminds you, you might as well know...
I'm the girl who hit Miss Lamont with a cake.
Believe me, it was meant for Mr. Lockwood!
Good-bye, Sid. I should have told you.
Wait a minute. What's this about, R.F.?
We wanted to use her in Zelda's picture, but if it made you and Lina unhappy...
I think it's wonderful.
- He's been looking for her for weeks. - Are you speaking for Lina also?
R.F., the owner of the Coconut Grove may do what Lina tells him to...
- but you're the head of this studio. - Yes, I am.
She's hired. But don't let Lina know she's on the lot.
- Take care of that, Phillips. - Thank you!
I'm glad you turned up. We've looked inside every cake in town.
Is it all right for you to be seen with me?
You mean, lofty star with humble player?
Not exactly, but for lunch, don't you usually tear a pheasant with Lamont?
Look, Kathy, all that stuff about Lina and me is sheer publicity.
Oh? It certainly seems more than that.
From what I've read in the columns and the fan magazines...
You read the fan magazines.
I pick them up in the beauty parlor or the dentist's office...
just like anybody.
Honest?
- Well, I buy four or five a month. - You buy four or five?
Anyway, to get back to the main point...
you and Miss Lamont do achieve an intimacy in all your pictures...
Did you say all my pictures?
I guess now that I think of it, I've seen eight or nine of them.
Eight or nine. It seems to me I remember someone saying...
'If you've seen one, you've seen 'em all.'
I did say some awful things that night, didn't I?
No. I deserved them.
Of course, I must admit I was pretty much upset by them.
So upset that I haven't been able to think of anything but you ever since.
Honest?
Honest.
Well, I've been pretty upset too.
Kathy, look.
Seeing you again, now that I...
Kathy, I'm trying to say something to you, but I...
I'm such a ham.
I guess I'm not able to without the proper setting.
- What do you mean? - Well...
Come here.
This is the proper setting.
Why, it's just an empty stage.
At first glance, yes. But wait a second.
A beautiful sunset.
Mist from the distant mountains.
Colored lights in a garden.
Milady is standing on her balcony...
in a rose-trellised bower...
flooded with moonlight.
We add 500,000 kilowatts of stardust...
a soft summer breeze...
and...
You sure look lovely in the moonlight, Kathy.
Now that you have the proper setting, can you say it?
I'll try.
Life was a song
You came along
I've laid awake the whole night through
If I but dared
To think you cared
This is what I'd say to you
You were meant for me
And I was meant for you
Nature patterned you
And when she was done
You were all the sweet things
Rolled up in one
You're like a plaintive melody
That never lets me free
But I'm content
The angels must have sent you
And they meant you
Just for me
But I'm content
The angels must have sent you
And they meant you
Just for me
Now...
ta, te, ti, to, tu.
Ta, tay, tee, toe, too.
No, no, Miss Lamont. Round tones, round tones.
Now let me hear you read your line.
And I can't stand 'im.
And I can't stand him.
And I can't stand 'im.
Can't.
'Cahn't.'
'Can-t.'
Can't. Can't.
Very good. Now...
Around the rocks the rugged rascal ran.
- Around the rocks the rugged... - No, rocks, rocks.
Around the rocks the rugged rascal ran.
- Shall I continue? - Go ahead.
Don't mind me.
Sinful Caesar sipped his snifter...
