Editorial Review:
Amazon.co.uk Review:
MGM's bold idea to remake George Cukor's Oscar-winning upper-class romantic farce, The Philadelphia Story, into a star-studded technicolor musical with Cole Porter tunes somehow works splendidly and remains an underrated gem. Even the plot and character names--and some bits of dialogue--all remain the same as the original. Crooning Bing Crosby replaces Cary Grant as the wealthy ex-husband trying to win back his soon-to-be-remarried ex-wife, spoiled ice queen Tracy Lord (Grace Kelly, stunning and aloof in her last film role, originated in the earlier comedy by Katherine Hepburn). Unlike Grant, however, Crosby has jazz great Louis Armstrong, playing himself, in his corner for quixotic persuasion. Frank Sinatra (cocky in James Stewart's former role) and Celeste Holm add support as the nosy reporters covering, and subsequently complicating, the upcoming wedding. Sure, High Society lacks the original's witty satire, sarcasm and character complexity; but it's assuredly paced and wonderfully acted, and contains enough romantic chemistry to keep the plot engaging. And then there's the music. Unlike the grandiose production numbers of many 40s and 50s musicals, High Society's musical sequences are considerably low-key and intimate, focusing on Porter's lyrical content and the style in which it's delivered by the charismatic performers. Armstrong kicks the film off in telling style: he sings the title track, a calypso tune outlining the plot like a Greek chorus--not as an elaborately choreographed song-and-dance number, but instead stuffed claustrophobically in the back of a limousine with his jazz band. Other musical standouts include Sinatra and Crosby playfully tossing barbs during "Well, Did You Evah?"; Crosby and Armstrong teaming up for an energetic clash of styles in "Now You Has Jazz"; the two soaring, archetypal ballads by the leads--Crosby's "I Love You, Samantha" and Sinatra's superior "You're Sensational"; and, finally, the satirical Sinatra/Holm duet, "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?", the closest High Society ever comes to social or class-commentary. --Dave McCoy, Amazon.com

- STYLISH FUN
There's surely nothing new that can be said of this "Classic". It sure isn't the greatest musical by any means, if "musical" is the right term to use. It was more a case of a comedy with musical numbers.
What sets it apart from so many of the musical offerings of its era is its stellar cast (not to mention music). Although Sinatra probably comes out on top in terms of acting, it's difficult to outshine Grace Kelly in terms of sheer beauty. If you add to that the eternal popularity of Bing ... Read More

- Timeless movie
This movie just doesn't fade with age. It is simply wonderful and has the best rendition of True Love with Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly EVER

- High Society DVD
My husband who is 79 said he wished we had a disk with High Society, he had loved the music so much. I came straight to Amazon, typed in request, ordered with a longer wait so it was free - you contacted me to say it might be a bit longer but it was there the next day and we both have enjoyed reminiscing very much.
Well done to all concerned

- The most perfect feel-good movie - ever?
I can't tell how many times I have re-watched this and it's still as wonderful, funny, romantic and just perfect as the first time.
From Grace Kelly's incredible beauty as the ice-queen Tracy, to Frank Sinatra's cheeky journalist, from Bing Crosby's love-lorn yet still witty ex-husband to Louis Armstrong's playing of himself; even the secondary characters, especially Tracy's younger sister (and I'm not a fan of cute kids) and her mother are just pitch-perfect.
