Let's see if I can do it...
1) Singing in the Rain (1952) - easy choice.
2) The Milkman (1950) - fun comedy with O'Connor teaming well with Jimmy Durante.
3) Feudin, Fussin and Fighting (1949) - O'Connor meets up with Percy Kilbridge/Marjorie Main before they went off to their franchises - a joyous time.
4) The Buster Keaton Story (1957) - look, this isn't a good movie and it killed O'Connor's movie star career but he's very good and it's interesting.
5) Call Me Madam (1953).- first rate musical.
6) Anything Goes (1956) - not highly regarded and undercast female leads but a lot of talent and joy.
7) Curtain Call at Cactus Creek (1950) - shenanigans out west sort of a musical Westerner and entertaining.
8) There's No Business Like Show Business (1954) - ah, I know its flaws but it has Marilyn singing 'Heatwave'.
9) Francis Covers the Big Town (1953) - I'll limit myself to one Francis and this 'll be it.
10) Bowery to Broadway (1944) - an all star Universal musical so the talent is B level but it's entertaining.
