More Info

HOLLYWOOD SINGING AND DANCING, 2008, 111 min. Director Mark McLaughlin's documentary is a very entertaining and comprehensive look at the Hollywood movie musical. This celebration of song and dance begins with Busby Berkeley's exquisite black-and-white choreographed extravaganzas that lightened the dark days of the Depression and continues through the rousing patriotic World War II musicals into the heyday of the great MGM spectaculars and finishes with the genre's recent resurgence and multi-generational embrace. This wonderfully entertaining historical document is illustrated by extraordinary clips and fabulous new interviews with, among others, Liza Minnelli, Shirley MacLaine, Mickey Rooney, Rita Moreno, Debbie Reynolds, Leslie Caron, Jane Russell, Tommy Tune, Joel Grey, Bill Condon, Rob Marshall and more.
