rainy tidbits...

while sniffing out 'singing in the rain' lyrics earlier, i was reading throught the imdb trivia section for the movie and here are some little morsels that i found pretty funny:

~ fliming of the cyd charisse dance number had to be stopped for several hours after it was discovered that her pubic hair was visible through her costume. when the problem was finally fixed, the director said, "it's ok, guys, we've finally got cyd's crotch licked."

~ the rain [in the film's title dance sequence] consisted of a mixture of water and milk so it would show up better on film but it caused gene kelly's wool suit to shrink. it didn't help that he also had a 103-degree fever while he did that sequence.
