Gene Kelly: Anatomy of a Dancer (1985) on DVD

DESCRIPTION:

The life and career of this film star and innovator whose work includes Singin' in the Rain, On the Town and An American in Paris are vibrantly recalled in this profile of the driven genius - often narcissistic, always a perfectionist - who reenergized the movie musical and redefined dance on screen. Packed with marvelous clips (including rare footage of Kelly's breakthrough Pal Joey Broadway role) and interviews with family members and Hollywood colleagues, Gene Kelly: Anatomy of a Dancer is the definitive look at a magical talent whose story has never been fully told until now. It's a life to be watched, celebrated, enjoyed.
