Singin' in the Rain (City Open Air Cinema)

Singin' in the Rain

USA 1952 | Stanley Donen | vostFR | 103’ | Cast : Gene Kelly, Donald O’Connor, Debbie Reynolds

Falling in love might leave you speechless. So it’s extra hard to fall in love if you’re a film star trying to transition from silent cinema to the sound era. The genius paradox of Stanley Donen’s crowd-pleasing musical is to have made a loud-voiced and colourful film about the end of cinema’s black-and-white silent era.

« Brilliant comic musical, the best picture by far of Hollywood in transition, with the catchiest tunes, the liveliest choreography, the most engaging performances and the most hilarious jokes of any musical ! » (Halliwell’s Film&Video Guide)

City Open Air Cinema @Knuedler

Following the popular success of recent years, the City Open Air Cinema, presented by the Luxembourg City Cinémathèque, is back again for a new edition of alfresco screenings in the moonlight. For the first time, the Cinémathèque will set up shop in one of the most beautiful squares in the very heart of the city, on Place Guillaume II. With its giant screen, hundreds of seats and convivial atmosphere, the newly refurbished ‘Knuedler’ transforms itself into a gigantic open-air cinema for a larger-than-life cinematic experience that combines thrills and summer fun.

From Moonrise Kingdom to Top Gun and from Alfred Hitchcock to Charlie Chaplin: the programme is varied and entertaining, offering classics and more contemporary films as well as cult movies that vibrate in tune with the magic of cinema. A beautiful selection of films that will present more stars than the sky can count…

So we look forward to seeing you… right under the stars!
