Fausterlitz Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 3 hours ago, BunnyWhit said: and pretty much anytime Cyd Charisse was just standing still.... I always wondered why there's that mysterious, jagged cut within the shot (at 2:22) in the Singin' in the Rain number, especially since the music continues uninterrupted across it. Apparently this was the result of a censorship issue: Charisse was momentarily captured in a pose that was considered too risqué at the time (although it's not clear exactly what that was, since the missing clip no longer exists and there aren't even any still photos from it). I assume the studio figured audiences at the time wouldn't even notice the cut, but it still bothers me every time I see it (especially because there's no way for anyone to fix it). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
