Hi!
Does the Don Lockwood & Cosmo Brown career montage in Singin´ in the Rain contain any references to historical 1920s vaudeville or musical theater? I realize the movie is basically an affectionate pastiche of silent movies and vaudeville, but in the costumes, choreography or background characters there might be some intentional references, for experts on the subject to spot. The ImdB trivia section has info about references to Clara Bow, Pola Negri and others, but no info about the music numbers in the career montage.
