“The Milk mixed with Rain is in fact a myth everyone. Its an Urban legend gone wild!”
“The Beautiful Girl number I feel is so big budget but so reused in many of these grand MGM pictures. Im a sucker for the women fashion montages though”
“If you skip this entire movie, and just watch the Cyd Charisse dance number … you wouldn’t be disappointed. She absolutely steals the show”
