Sight and Sound’s ‘Top 100 Greatest Films of all time‘ is the critic’s poll the magazine takes each decade with more than 1,600 critics, to test the temperature of what is considered a classic! To celebrate this we will screen one of the choices from the poll each month as part of our new Sunday Classics film strand.
Singin in the Rain comes in at Number 10. Described by Rotten Tomatoes as “an absolute masterpiece, and easily, easily 5 stars.”
Join the conversation, watch the films and at the screenings, vote for YOUR own classic, to be screened at the end of 2024 as part of our very own Audience Poll!
Gene Kelly’s performance of ‘Singin’ in the Rain’ has to be one of the greatest dance numbers ever performed on screen and Hollywood’s troubled transition from silent to talking pictures at the end of the 1920s provided the inspiration for perhaps the greatest of movie musicals.
