Plot: "Say, he looks like an actor," says the platform conductor. And with that introduction, Gene Kelly steps off the train and into his film career. After starring on Broadway in Pal Joey...( read more read more... )

Bad move, Gene. Filmed in 1942, For Me and My Gal vigorously supports the war effort, including teaching Kelly the error of his ways. The old-time setting also allows for a basketful of nostalgic charmers, including "After You've Gone," "Oh You Beautiful Doll," and "Ballin' the Jack," and Kelly and Garland's crooning and tapping of the title tune is pure joy. --David Horiuchi

    Ahhh one of those great muscials with Gene Kelly in it. It's wonderful when eh sings the title song to Judy Garland.

    The plot is kind of weird, and Gene Kelly's character is kind of confusing, but the musical numbers are wonderful, and Gene's dancing scenes are great.

    This is a very sweet movie with GENE and Judy. My favorite number is "When you Wore a Tulip" performed by he and Judy. I also loved the "Ball-n-a jack number. GENE was so young and extremely handsome in this movie, and he and Judy clicked so very well in all the movies they made together.

    Synopsis:
    Kate Hudson twinkles as the heroine of How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, a magazine writer assigned to date a guy, make all the mistakes girls make that drive guys away (being clingy, talking in ...( read more )baby-talk, etc.), and record the process like a sociological experiment. However, the guy she picks--rangy Matthew McConaughey--is an advertising executive who's just bet that he can make a woman fall in love with him in ten days; if he succeeds, he'll win a huge account that will make his career. The set-up is completely absurd, but the collision of their efforts to woo and repel creates some pretty funny scenes. McConaughey's easy charm and Hudson's lightweight impishness play well together and the plot, though strictly Hollywood formula, chugs along efficiently. At moments Hudson seems to channel her mother, Goldie Hawn, to slightly unnerving effect. --Bret Fetzer

    Gene Kelly and Judy Garland have such great onscreen chemistry. Besides Mickey Rooney and Fred Astaire, he was the best leading man for her.
