High Society (1956) Beginning & End with Louis Armstrong & his Band

[@martythetickler]

He always looks so damn happy when he's playing; he exudes class and respectability and every good vibe you can imagine.

[@johneshuis1215]

he is stoned :)

[@PlayNiceFolks]

[@jennifersman7990]

Louis Armstrong was that rare and infectious performer that made you smile weather he was singing, playing trumpet or just talking

[@OrangeTabbyCat]

Because always grinning was part of what he did

[@Worldwide170]

No words to describe gorgeous Grace Kelly in this movie- Beauty Queen. She's the only one. I think it's really impossible to see another Grace Kelly. She's the epitome of beauty and grace.

[@Jiv_Ing57819]

Here come the musicians, drummer n bass player n trumpeter hehehehehe ,: -D

[@wordtothewise9723]

Who else wants Louis Armstrong's version of 'The Wedding March' at their wedding?

[@SophieMia806]

I've said this since the first time I ever saw the movie. It's awesome!

[@usaneebeilles9510]

Great man- Louis Armstrong. How he lives his life is truly inspirational. I've so much admired and respected the man. A unique, powerful voice is widely known around the world. ❤ He'll always be remembered.

[@alexandradane3672]

I adore this , I adored Louis Armstrong……. never mind his wonderful music , that wonderful smile, contagious laughter and joie de vivre .

[@voltape]

very6 very good film - I saw it at its opening in 1956 - yupiii I was 21 years old then!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@rochellehendrix2267]

watching this movie again and had to listen to this intro song again. It's one of my favorites from the movie.

[@edgaramorim9840]

What movie is This?

[@whytneyd]

‘High Society’ (1956) starring Bing Crosby, Grace Kelly & Frank Sinatra.

[@rozeecee]

High Society was the last film I saw at Radio City Music Hall in NYC. Loved it for Louis and the jazz.

[@knudthuroe1678]

Louis simply the best,god be with you and bless you from Ireland

[@dgaf6]

The Legend! Love him so much. His music will live forever ♡

[@sealyoness]

Mr. Armstrong used to have such a fine voice. But he could melt permafrost whenever he played. Thanx for the clip.

[@krishnarao3768]

Oh how I wish they wrote songs like these now! Nostalgia...

They just dont have any entertainers of this calibre any more.

[@victorkong82]

What about Justin Bieber? He's the Louis Armstrong of our times.

[@jennifersman7990]

Yes, Bieber is the Armstrong of our times, if it’s our time in hell

[@PlayNiceFolks]

They have better. You're just too lazy to find them.

[@lolom8772]

Jaron Talotta though there are some great entertainers now, back then you didn’t have to find the great ones since they were the main focus, but now crap is shown off while the great ones are kept in the shadows

[@davidwesley2525]

[@knucklescapricorn31]

He always has this crazy look on his face! You can't watch him perform without smiling :D

[@josephcalderon906]

The ending of the very well made remake has the croolest rendition of here comes the bride i've ever heard!.god bless the great satchmo(mr.louis armstrong)for existing on this planet,(even though it was a short time)for brightening and making our lives happier and much less grimmer,with his voice p,personality and music!.

This is one of the many examples that the black community helped A LOT with music in general.

I see stating the obvious is a thing.

This is deffo a Must watch film, Lots of stars and in different situations, plus GREAT music. If you don`t like this film you MUST be dead.

[@terrywright7470]

This is NOT the comment that I posted and I know this for certain as I have NEVER used the word DEFFO.

[@dinopacheco8197]

Love his voice.

[@HanhNguyen-wd7ew]

my fave artist since i was in grade 7

[@AbrahamDiner]

Louis Armstrong singing Calypso. It was the era of Harry Belafonte.

[@jennifersman7990]

He had one of the best record deals around back then, he had the freedom to record pretty much whatever he wanted, and did! The only others with close to a comparable deal were Sinatra and later on, Ray Charles

[@Juliaflo]

This beginning is shortened--It starts, "just dig that scenery floating by, we're now approaching Newport Rhode-I, we've been for years and variety, Cholly Knickerbocker, now we're gong to be in High, High, High Soci-, High Society". (Accurate to the best of my knowledge).

[@robertdyson4216]

Just as i remember it, especially the "Newport Rhode-I" !

[@vagnerdias5220]

Uma das vozes mais linda de tds os tempos era uma fera cantando

[@veronicanahoumfurtadodemen7527]

I am going to do as Louis did with his "assistant", and watch this movie next weekend. Looks like a fun picture.

[@PlayNiceFolks]

I never saw the movie. But this video just makes me feel a bit happy.

[@alanscott6836]

There's a strong case for Louis being both greatest Singer and Musician of the 20th Century

[@lolom8772]

Very strong case, he’s wonderful in every which way( though I prefer Sinatra as the best)

[@zekeiac]

Pops was the grandfather of it all

[@jdewitt77]

This was a great movie and very funny. Great cast, good story, nice songs and Grace Kelly sure was hot. How her expression changed in the last scene was hilarious and shows what a great actress she truly was. Too bad she went to to Monaco to get married. Hollywood lost a great talent. She only made 11 films. Who knows what else she would have done had she stayed in the movie industry.

[@jennifersman7990]

jdewitt77 Yes, that’s very true but I think she always wanted to be a wife and mother and when she met Prince Rainer (spelling?) she found the man she wanted to be with forever, he just happened to be the Prince of Monaco. And I don’t think she ever truly turned her back on Hollywood she was still a voting member of the Motion Picture Academy and I think she served on the board of one of the film studios

[@halwasserman7905]

It's a wonderful performance of the song but I wonder when Louis Armstrong first sang did anyone offer him a throat lozenge? We all readily accept this style of singing today but there must have been a time when people said, "Are you kidding? Come back when you get over your sore throat."

No, claves are those wooden sticks. I'm too ignorant to have known which Trummy Young was exactly but, as there's no trombone in this song/scene, I'm going to guess Trummy Young also turned his hand to a little percussion, and that we are talking about the same guy..and yes, I bet they'd all be thinking how the times do change... BTW, it was just a funny - no racist ; )

[@jennifersman7990]

Grace Kelly is a member of Newport, R.I. society and she’s about to get married when her former fiancée Bing Crosby shows up and tries to convince her to marry him. Add to this is Frank Sinatra as a nosy tabloid reporter looking for a potential scandal. It all takes place over a weekend in Newport
