Christmas tv (a brief summary, part 2)

A few more films were seen:
“Suspicion”
Not the best of Hitchcock’s—dull, too overtly noir, old fashioned (and not in a good sense, with lots of romantic huffing and puffing), with uninteresting and predictable characters. I don’t want to be too harsh, as I am not a big fan of Old Hollywood overall.
“High Society”
The best part of it is Bing Crosby singing and Louis Armstrong playing trumpet. The rest is cringe beyond belief: Grace Kelly is cute, of course, but that’s about it. Sinatra is annoying. New look fashion is fine.
