Cole Porter, Shakespeare, and 3-D: Not the usual recipe for an MGM musical, but hey--it works. Although it runs hot and cold, this 1953 take on Porter's delightful Broadway smash lets a chewy cast gorge on some terrific songs and show-biz in-jokes. Think of the plot as His Girl Friday in greasepaint: vain star Howard Keel wants to lure ex-wife Kathryn Grayson back to the boards with a musical version of The Taming of the Shrew. The movie's weakness is too much Shakespeare, not enough backstage backbiting (and why are two of the best numbers, "So in Love" and Ann Miller's zippy "Too Darn Hot," confined to a prologue?). Then there's the tendency to throw things at the camera--3-D, what hath you wrought? The candy-store color design is great fun, and Tommy Rall and future dance titan Bob Fosse are turned loose for some sensational leaps. Now that's "Wunderbar." --Robert Horton

Customer Reviews of Kiss Me Kate

This movie is 'too darn hot'.....
What can I say about KISS ME KATE that hasn't been said already? I was first introduced to the music of this production via an old vinyl version that [I believe] was released before the film was even made. The great Cole Porter music accentuates the mood(s) of the story. The plot basically is that two stage performers who were once married to each other (played by Katherine Grayson and Howard Keel) but whose union ended in bitter divorce are asked by Cole Porter himself to star in a musical version of TAMING OF THE SHREW. This request isn't exactly received amicably. The two can barely stand each other from a distance--being on the SAME STAGE is even more excruciating! Needless to say, this tension parallels with the tension the characters in the play have between one another. <
> <
>What makes this film SO good is the beautiful music. The songs include "So In Love," "I Hate Men" and "Too Darn Hot" (featuring a sizzling Ann Miller, tapdancing on a table and creating fire with every step!). This is a great musical and is truly over the top (in almost every sense of the word!). I think you will enjoy it.


Kiss Me Kate
Great 50s musical. Better than in the cinema when it first came out. Great copy and excellent sound.


Great "Kate"; lousy DVD packaging
This film has to be one of the very greatest stage --> movie transfers. Uniformly strong cast and a chance to see some early Bob Fosse choreography. Though Hermes Pan does most of the choreography, three male dancers (Fosse, Tommy Rall, and Bobby Van) choreograph individual sections of "From This Moment On". <

>I saw this film when it was re-released in 3-D in the 1980s and wish we had 3-D TV screens. But even without the 3-D effects its a wondeful movie. <
> <
>Others have noticed the substandard packaging and I agree the cardboard cover is constructed in such a way that the disk could easily be damaged. I'm all for "green" but I don't think this is the reason for the substandard packaging. <

>But don't let the packaging deter you; "Kiss Me, Kate" is a great, great film.
