High Society is one of my favorite films of all time, so I was surprised when I realized I had yet to write about it! I know people have great love for its predecessor, The Philadelphia Story, but there’s just something about this film that makes me love it even more… and I’m a huge

I’ll be real. This has never been my favorite Marilyn Monroe movie, but I thought I would give it a second watch for The Neighbors Blogathon and see how I felt about it the second time around. I’m still a bit conflicted about the premise itself, but there are definitely some great things in it.
