Description

An all-star musical romp finds Grace Kelly ("Rear Window," "Mogambo," "High Noon") about to remarry when wealthy ex-husband Bing Crosby ("The Bells of St. Mary's," "Going My Way," "White Christmas") pops back into her life and tries to win her back. Oscar-winners Frank Sinatra ("From Here to Eternity," "The Manchurian Candidate") and Celeste Holm ("Gentleman's Agreement") snoop around as reporters in this Cole Porter-penned musical remake of "The Philadelphia Story". Featuring jazz great Louis Armstrong ("Hello, Dolly!") in a duet with Crosby. Nominated for Best Story, Song and Original Score.

    I could never get the movie to play through my apple cables from my 4s for 2 days. We called apple care and they were no help. The movie looked great on the phone, but several people were going to view it and we could not get it to work. We have asked for a refund for the movie we spent 2 days trying to get to work in the application we needed. Bummer!

    Oh great, only available in SD a few days ago, I buy it and now here it is in HD, no upgrade allowed I have to buy it again, same with Casablanca, Wedding Crashers and Best in Show . . . not fair to have to buy the same item twice to get HD.

  • Love it!

    I have never seen the Philadephia Story, but the this is a brilliant movie. Good story, funny and exceptional music from Bing and Louis Armstrong. If you love jaxx, you'll love this movie.

    This is a very poor remake of The Philadelphia Story !!!! Grace Kelly makes Katharine Hepburn's character seem shallow and silly. If you want to see the MUCH better movie watch Philadelphia Story it's funny and smart and witty things that the "musical" version are not. Though I love Bing I just didn't see Kelly with him...At least rent TPS before you rent this ......movie

  • Louis Armstrong, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra CLASSIC MUSICAL MATCH

    I love this movie. I watched the Philadelphia Story first and then watched this. I liked seeing the movie portrayed with different actors and music by greats like Crosby, Sinatra, and Armstrong. Great movie.

    This is just a remake of the classic movie, The Philadelphia Story. This was ten times worse. All I can say is DO NOT get this sloppy remake of The Philadelphia Story. I do highly recommend The Philadelphia Story, though

    I watched this movie my mom and did not enjoy it at all. Apparently high society is very low class! This movie is grace kellys worst. It is just plain stupid! My grandma liked it, maybe it is just a difference in taste!

  • Amazing!

    I watched this movie at Christmas time with my mom and I loved it! I am thinking I may have to buy it. It is a funny movie with an amazing cast.

  • Timeless and Beautiful Music!

    I adore Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly's version of this Broadway play. It's just as great as The Philadelphia Story and celebrates the great Cole Porter's music in its full form with a star-studded cast. This is worth seeing time and time again!!
