It's Always Fair Weather

This caustic spoof of television, advertising and even Hollywood is an offbeat combination of parody and the real thing-great song and dance numbers. "From the title on, It's Always Fair Weather is full of ironies which are curious in an MGM musical. The fickleness of human loyalty is at the heart of the story, and Hollywood was seeing that fickleness in the movie-going public of 1955. Here, the big screen takes self-righteous aim at the 'little screen.' Using the splendors of CinemaScope-including three-way split screen-Hollywood wonders aloud how America could turn from such collossal ingenuity, not to mention sincerity, to the shabby banality of TV's 'reunion' shows."
