Silk Stockings

Paris is the setting for this lively musical adaptation of the 1955 Broadway hit (which is itself a version of the classic movie comedy "Ninotchka"), in which an audacious movie producer (Fred Astaire) attempts to woo Soviet operative Ninotchka (Cyd Charisse), who’s been sent to the City of Lights to bring a defecting film composter back to Russia. Able support from Jules Munshin, Peter Lorre, and Janis Paige, and a Cole Porter score that includes "Too Bad," "All of You," and the title tune add to the fun. 117 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English.
