1. The out of sync scenes are when Kathy records the song for Lina, and when Lina mouths the words on camera. This is ironic because Lina's the star but has a bad voice and
Kathy isn't as famous but doe Lina's work for her. It's basic comedy since the one with less notoriety is the one with more talent.
2. Film history is shown in the film with the epochal transition from silents to talkies. Attitudes shown are those who don't want to make the change and upset silent actors who couldn't continue into talkies due to their unfit voices.
3. They're laughing at the mediocrity showcased in the film Lina was in, due to the over-the-top acting and failing sound in the picture. It's a kind of parody because the movie was intended tobe serious, but became comedic due to difficulties on set.
4. The story and music fit well together, they mesh perfectly as the music numbers help advance the plot, and the plot in a way helps to lead up the the songs sung.
5. Don and Kathy's romance is developed with the songs "Singin' In the Rain" and "Good Morning", while a dramatic scene adding to this is when Lina catches Don and Kathy kissing. They fit by helping to advance the plot and character development.
6. I would agree to an extent, not completely because true, musicals aren't as big now as they were then, but some popular musicals have been released following the musical genre's peak of popularity, such as Rent and Hairspray released in the 2000's.
