Hello, my name is Justin DeClew and I'm here today with Will Sloan.

And you're listening to The Important Cinema Club.

Fit as a fiddle and ready for love.

You meet me to and I was going to be like, today we're going to sing, we're going to dance.

Toronto, Toronto, a hell of a town.

We're talking about...

You just said that and clearly you know the Simpsons parody. Much better than you know, New York, New York. It's so wonderful town. And nobody could see what I was doing the guys and dolls, like under the legs. Which is not a Stanley Donnan musical, but that's what we're talking about today. Stanley Donnan. And one of the reasons

for talking about him, of course, is the fact that he died, I think, two weeks ago. One of those

directors that started very young in the business, which is why I saw a lot of surprise that he was

still alive, because you associate him with classic Hollywood and all those actors, directors,

screenwriter, producers are long

gone. I mean, he is one of the, I think maybe the last of the great studio directors. Oh yeah,

directors, definitely, not actors, because fucking Kirk Douglas is hanging on.

Kirk Douglas is hanging on, as is Olivia DeHavilland and as is Mr. Clint Eastwood, who you'll recall began in Revenge of the Creature.

Don't forget, Olivia Havilland has a lot of lawsuits that still need to be settled before she can kick the bucket.

She's great.

But yeah, Stanley Donnan, so 94 years old, and it had also been 30 years since he made his last film, the lamented blame it on Rio, which I have yet to see. I picked it off the shelf at Bay Street video and looked at it. And I'm like, no, I can't do it. And I'm like, commentary by no, and I stuffed it back on the shelf. Had I time to watch one more movie this week? It would have been that one. Mm-hmm. But he also made a movie you might have heard of called... On the Town. On the town. Now, singing in the rain. Singing in the rain. Now, did we get the title right?

Sing it. He also made a movie you might have heard of called On the Town. On the Town.

Now, singing in the rain.

Singing in the rain.

Now, did we get the title right?

Singing in the rain?
