I watched Singing in the Rain twice today and have now made a plan for my
reel_torchwood fic. It will be the same story but set in 1920s Britain and how their industry coped with the move to "talkies".
Also I worked out the three main characters.
Don Lockwood- Jack Harkness
Cosmo Brown- Ianto Jones
Kathy Selden- Toshiko Sato
After watching the film those three seemed perfect as those characters. Jack especially would make a perfect Don Lockwood. You need to watch the film to know why. Also it will be a Jack/Tosh pairing because I want to remain traditional for this fic and everyone else will be writing Jack/Ianto in their fics so I want to be different.
I'm really excited about this.
Also Gene Kelly is mesmerizing to watch, during the "Singing in the Rain" dance sequence I had a huge grin on my face. I won't be leaving out that scene in my fic, there is no way that I would.
