Review of Kiss Me Kate (1953) by Jakki J — 29 May 2008
A fun, musical take on the famous Shakespeare play, "The Taming Of The Shrew". The movie is basically about 2 stage actors who were once married and now asked to be in the same production. It's interesting to watch the parellel relationship of the leads on stage and real life.
Many funny scenes and Howard Keel often steals the show with his characters booming voice and tendancy to over-act, as stage actors often do. Also contains some excellent dance numbers, courtesy of Ann Miller.
The Cole Porter soundtrack is hot!
