Gene and Judy were so great together in this film. It is about Judy and Gene who are both vaudevillians.....
Gene wants Judy as a partner for an act he wants to try, reluctant as Judy is they end up getting together....
They work their way up until they are about to play at the palace when Gene gets his draft notice as WW1 springs up. Gene(not wanting to go) smashes his hand in his trunk, hoping not to go. Judy's brother(who entered the war) dies and she feels her duty to serve. Getting angry at Gene, they split! Soon after in Paris, they meet up. Gene talks to Judy(very touching part) and leaves saying that his one victory was that she was once his girl.
In the end, Judy(as WW1 sweet heart) sings at the Palace, whereas Gene is there watching. She points during her song at him, and runs into his arms. After which, the orchestra plays the theme song. And Gene and Judy together sing on stage in eachother's arms. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
The front cover. This is a totally classic Gene Kelly and Judy Garland movie. The ending is so touching that it will make you want to cry( I have).
