Singing in the Rain
Singing in the rain, holding an umbrella. She's walking in a city. Downtown New York City.
Downtown New York City?? It could be Brooklyn, that's where the Dodgers came from. There is a white Pontiac in the background with a black Chevy on the right side. It's night time because the headlights are on. You can hear traffic sounds and rain splashing. There is a manhole in the street. Maybe there is a hobo under there! This was over 30 years ago, because after that the Dodgers moved to LA.
Her name is Trixie and she has a family. She might have a baby son who's name is Snookums.
Looks like she is having fun. There is a smile on her face because of the rain. Or maybe because she's getting out of the rain! She is going to a baseball game, or to the movies, or going shopping.
No she's going to the beauty salon, her mascara is running!
Doesn't look like she went shopping because she only has white tennis shoes on. She got stuck in the rain at night time, unprepared. Just singing in the rain, smelling the clean air.
She definitely didn't go shopping, it looks like she went to get something she needed, like milk. Or maybe coffee because it's cold out. There is juice in her purse, chocolate or vanilla juice. Looks like she only has one arm! Maybe she's holding the coffee behind her back.
Trixie is going back to the house to warm up. She has milk with her still. She looks young to be a mother, but she is a housewife getting milk for the baby.
