 For Dance Enthusiasts/Gene Kelly FansMar 28, 2010
This video not only looked at Gene Kelly's dancing but at his personal life as well. Did you know that Gene Kelly:
introduced ballet into modern dance?; that Debbie Reynolds was terrified of him?; and that he danced with Fred Astaire? This DVD lasted approx. 90 minutes and I look forward to seeing it again and again.

 Buy An American in Paris- this documentary is a special featureFeb 11, 2010
I enjoyed this documentary very much, great for any fan of Mr. Kelly! But I would suggest purchasing the 2 disc edition of An American in Paris, which has this documentary as a special feature, it is less expensive, and if you like Gene Kelly enough to own this documentary then you should own An American in Paris anyway!
Very informativeDec 21, 2009
This is a very informative commentary on Gene's life and career. We have enjoyed watching it though we seldom watch it all the way through at a sitting. It is a bit slow paced compared to a Gene Kelly movie. My daughter did a paper on it for college and got a good grade. That was worth it!
A retrospective of a true American geniusDec 04, 2009
When I was a student at UCLA in 1970, Gene Kelly came to give a free lecture to students. There were about 200 people in the room. He came in and gave a wonderful talk about his work and then openned it up for questions. He answered them all, the silly fawning questions and the more serious questions about dancing, movies, being a movie star, his masterworks everything with charm, erudition and consideration. It was impressive that a man of his caliber would come to a free to students lecture.
This DVD is definitely a keeper. I am so glad it was made. You can own the DVD's, but the commentaries are invaluable. They not only tell the story of the man, but also an important part of American culture, cinema and dance. The "good" image that America had throughout the world is because of the Gene Kelly movies that really did not need translation.
This DVD adds not only valuable information about Gene Kelly, but it enriches your knowledge and appreciation of Fred Astaire, Judy Garland, Stanley Donen and other luminaries who created these works of art.
Loved it.Jan 06, 2009
I loved this CD on Gene Kelly. He was one of my favorite dancers when it came to musicals. I loved to watch him dance.
I highly recommend this to anyone who loved musicals.
