Title: Super, super, super
Review: What a cast! Grace Kelly, Crosby and Sinatra, Louis Armstrong, Celeste Holm. Add to that the fact that High Society isa remake of George Cukor's Oscar-winning upperclass romantic farce, The Philadelphia Story, sprinkle marvelous and intimate Cole Porter tunes throughout, and the ironic fact that this was Grace Kelly's last film role, and it's a sure winner.Louis Armstrong, playing himself (and who can imagine him playing anyone else?), starts the movie off by singing the title song. The song and soft-shoe numbers between Crosby and Sinatra, Sinatra and Holmes, Crosby and Armstrong are unforgettable.The plot, of course, is based on: Who Will Tracy Marry? We've got her engaged and about to wed a stuffed shirt, but also present are her ex-husband who still loves her and the scandal rag reporter who falls for his intended victim.Marvelous and witty social commentary, tho the `social' message is more downplayed than in the original Philadelphia Story.
