One thought on “Movies Of The Year Awards: 1952

  1. I met Debbie Reynolds at the Music Center in Los Angeles, in 1982,…what can I say that already hasn't been said about her, she was one of the most natrually talented persons I've ever met,… joking with her we asked if she'd dance a few steps for us,….wow, she sang, danced and did a comedy stitck in 2 1/2 min. I will never forget,..my birth year is 1952' and “Singing In The Rain” deserved Best Picture,…well in my heart,…God Bless You, Debbie! (Richard 2010')
