Lady Alyx Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 ...just stumbled across this and thought I would share...this clip...I gotta get this DVD into my collection.... You Tube - Gene Kelly in The Pirate ~~~~Sailing Westward Bound~~~~ Lady Alyx
CaptainSatan Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 I would have enjoyed the buccaneer ballet a lot more if the costume were a little less gay. It reminded me of a butch Peter Pan on steroids. As we say in Ireland let's drink until the alcohol in our system destroys our liver and kills us.
Hester Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Love, love, LOVE Gene Kelly! The "Butch Peter Pan on Steroids" costume works for me! We get to see his legs! Saw part of this movie on TV awhile ago. I remember it wasn't wonderful. Don't think I actually saw this dance sequence, though. Love the crow's nest and the fire!
Lady Alyx Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 I love his thighs as well in this shot...guess it appeals to the womenfolk a tad more.... I love the Movie Posters!!!!! Thanks for posting them. ~~~~Sailing Westward Bound~~~~ Lady Alyx

Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 As corny as some of the scenes were I have to say I enjoyed this movie. Caught it last year on one of the Turner networks. Gene Kelly is my favorite musical lead. It doesn't hurt that he wore those pants either. *nods in agreement with the gals* Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales. Welcome, Foolish Mortals...
Hester Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 I love his thighs as well in this shot...guess it appeals to the womenfolk a tad more.... No, silly ... that's Douglas Fairbanks from The Black Pirate! But I agree, CaptainSatan, that was definitely the inspiration for Gene Kelly's costume. Personally, I want to be Billie Dove: http://www.doctormacro1.info/Images/Fairba...,%20The)_01.jpg [That image is huge, so I didn't hotlink.]
Lady Alyx Posted June 27, 2008 Author Posted June 27, 2008 love all the pics you folks have posted ~~~~Sailing Westward Bound~~~~ Lady Alyx
CaptainSatan Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 No, silly ... that's Douglas Fairbanks from The Black Pirate! :angry: Yeah, I couldn't find a pic of Gene Kelly. The costumes are very similar. Except for Gene Kelley's T-Rex quadriceps As we say in Ireland let's drink until the alcohol in our system destroys our liver and kills us.

Mad Woman Cheryl Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Me thinks that this is the ONLY Gene Kelly movie where you actually see him wearing shorts. Tis one of my favorite old movies though! Mad Woman Cheryl By Odin's mighty spear, I hereby snap and go berzerk!!!"
Lady Alyx Posted August 7, 2008 Author Posted August 7, 2008 well I finally got a copy of this movie...and boy the costumes throughout the entire movie are FANTASTIC....! Hats and petticoats galore! ~~~~Sailing Westward Bound~~~~ Lady Alyx

Black Syren Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 Gene Kelly is also my favorite. I loved him in the Pirate but I think Singing in the rain was my favorite with him in it. Judy Garland is a female favorite for me...I loved her in Meet me is St. Louis. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v519/Dara286/trident01-11.png If you got a dream chase it, cause a dream won't chase you back...(Cody Johnson Till you Can't)
