Movie Reviews of High Society
Movie Review: NO WHERE AS GOOD AS THE ORIGIONAL
Summary: 3 Stars
This is a whimsical musical remake of The Philadelphia Story. As I am sure you know, unless you are a complete classic film idiot!! Although, I love all the players in this film, in their proper rolls, this is not the right movie to remake. It is a complete insult to the amazing performances of Carey Grant, Katherine Hepburn, and James Stewart. First of all, Grace Kelly cannot even begin to pull off the tenacity of Hepburn. Her facade is totally forced and Bing seems completely out of place in this premature attempt at glory. I cannot believe that Cole Porter wasted his time and energy on such a unlikely cast. However beautifully Crosby's singing, this film is no where near it's predicesor. Skip this and watch the origional, the way it was intended.
