High Society
THIS remake of George Cukor’s Oscar-winning upper-class romantic farce The Philadelphia Story into a star-studded musical with Cole Porter numbers was a cinematic triumph.
Crooner Bing Crosby plays the tycoon trying to win back his soon-to-remarry ex-wife Tracy Lord (Grace Kelly in her final film role before marrying Prince Rainier of Monaco). Standout songs include Well, Did You Evah?, True Love and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? With Frank Sinatra and jazz great Louis Armstrong.
