A 'swelegant' 50s musical , 25 July 2004

High Society
on DVD
(1956)
Starring: Bing Crosby, Grace Kelly, Celeste Holm
Director: Charles Walters
Certificate: 
A feel-good 50s musical with all the usual razzle dazzle and schmaltz. The film's weak plot is more than compensated for by the fantastic Cole Porter score, 'swell' Sinatra/Crosby duet and a heart-warming Louis Armstrong number. Surprisingly convincing performances from the two crooners although Kelly's overplayed 'Tracy' can grate a little. If you're a fan of this genre, you won't be disappointed!
