The main focus of the film is on how Kelly’s Don Lockwood, Jean Haegen’s Lina Lamont and O’ Connor’s Cosmo Brown have to adopt a totally different kind of skill set to survive in this new world of ‘talking pictures’. While Lockwood and Brown easily gel with this new trend given their immense talent, Lina faces a lot of difficulties as she lacks the ability to sing or dance skilfully and doesn’t have that sweet voice that audience desire.

The melodious songs of the movie are something which viewers can’t get out of their minds with the title track i.e. Singing in the Rain, Good Morning and Make ‘Em Laugh being the absolute winners. The music of the movie is so compelling that one can’t help but humming it and dancing to its beats but so is the dance.

What makes this film even more beautiful and delightful is the use of a whole variety of different colours throughout the film which can specially be noticed in the entire Broadway Melodysequence. Also, the Broadway Melody sequence was full of brilliant camera work, beautiful production designs and flawless editing and was the highest point of the entire movie technically as well as cinematically.
Apart from all the singing and dancing, the script of the film was both funny and meaningful as when required and the story wrapped up pretty satisfyingly for the audience as each character arc was closed appropriately with everything turning out to be the way it is supposed to be by the end. To sum up it is a movie that, just like Kelly, will make audiences forget their worries, drop their umbrellas and splash around while singing in the rain.
