This documentary about MGM producer Arthur Freed is very interesting. We learn a lot about him and the way he worked. Famous directors like Stanley Donen, Gene Kelly and Vincente Minnelli, who directed a lot of the musicals Freed produced, and a lot of others talk about this great person in movie history.
What made this documentary even more interesting are the great moments from great musicals like 'The Wizard of Oz', 'An American in Paris', 'Singin' in the Rain', 'The Band Wagon' and 'Gigi'. A very nice documentary about a man and his great musical movies.
