Great film is alchemy, the result of an interaction between writing, performance, light, sound, sets, and editing. On each episode of Making the Scene, I’m joined by a guest as we work to understand that alchemy through the lens of a single scene, to understand a director’s approach to their film by examining how and why they built this one, specific moment.

Making the Scene gets musical for its second time this season, as film and music writer Natalie Marlin joins us to discuss the Broadway Melody sequence from Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly's 1952 classic Singin' In the Rain! We talk color, choreography, casting shuffles, pastiche, and more in this fantastic conversation about this film's late-added musical sequence, and how it speaks to the film's themes nonetheless.
