Crosby and Kelly share True Love Der Bingle and Ol&39; Blue Eyes swing-swing-swingle Well Did You Evah? and Crosby and Louis Satchmo Armstrong jive with Now You Has Jazz Yes indeedy we has!Calamity JaneDoris Day and Howard Keel fuss feud and fall in love as Calamity Jane and Wild Bill Hickok in this entertainment mother lode At first curvaceous Calamity is too durned busy fighting Indians and cracking a bullwhip to pay mind to such girly what-alls as dresses and perfume And Wild Bill is too danged busy wooing dainty chateuse (Allyn McLerie) to give a hoot about a hot-headed tomboy But things change in a rootin &39; tootin &39; big way when each becomes love&39;s target There are wide-open Technicolor Western spaces lots of high-stepping dances and a hummable humdinger of a score by Academy Award-winning songwriters Sammy Fain and Paul Francis Webster who took their first Oscar for the classic ballad (and &39;50s megahit) Secret Love

Box set containing two classic musicals. 'High Society' (1956) is a remake of 'The Philadelphia Story' and stars Grace Kelly as socialite Tracy Lord who, even as she prepares for her second marriage, still has obvious feelings for her ex-husband (Bing Crosby). She also strikes up a friendship with a reporter (Frank Sinatra), who has been sent to cover her society wedding. The Cole Porter score includes 'Who Wants To Be a Millionaire' and the famous Crosby/Sinatra duet 'Well, Did You Evah'. In 'Calamity Jane' (1953), Doris Day plays a famous female sharpshooter, who would rather hit targets than chase men - until she falls for 'Wild Bill' Hickok (Howard Keel), who would rather shoot Indians than chase after a tomboy like Calamity Jane. Featuring the Oscar-winning song 'Secret Love'.
