Movie Description
Cole Porter's smash Broadway musical ANYTHING GOES received its second silver-screen treatment with this 1956 remake directed by Robert Lewis (ZEIGFELD FOLLIES). Updating the original 1936 version with loads of 1950s-era Hollywood glamor (including lavish costume designs by Edith Head), Lewis invited laconic crooner Bing Crosby to reprise his starring role opposite a newcomer, dancer Donald O'Connor. The retooled plot centers on Broadway actors Bill Benson (Crosby) and Ted Adams (O'Connor), who face a series of professional and romantic entanglements with the lovely leading ladies, Gaby (Jeanmaire) and Patsy (Mitzi Gaynor), on board an ocean liner travelling from Paris to New York. The unusual love quadrangle is punctuated by Crosby and O'Connor's showstopping song-and-dance numbers for a breezy ear- and eye-candy confection from the golden age of Hollywood musicals.
