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 ... Read More

If you liked the movie The Philadelphia Story you'll like this musical version with Bing, Grace Kelly and Louis Armstrong. Bing croones, Grace looks beautiful and Louie sings and of course plays his trumpet along with his band. This was the last movie that Grace Kelly made before she left show business to become princess Grace of Monacco. The music and lyrics are by Cole Porter so you know they will be good.
