This 1953 musical comedy film, an adaptation of a Cole Porter Broadway musical, was adapted from Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. It starred Kathryn Grayson and Howard Keel, featured the song, "Another Opening, Another Show," and was filmed in 3-D!

The 1953 film that fits this description is the vibrant MGM musical, *Kiss Me, Kate*. It brought Cole Porter’s smash-hit Broadway show to the big screen, starring the popular duo of Kathryn Grayson and Howard Keel. As one of the era's most celebrated musical teams, they led the cast through Porter's brilliant score, which famously kicks off with the energetic ensemble number, "Another Opening, Another Show," perfectly capturing the excitement and chaos of life in the theater.

The film's clever premise is a story-within-a-story. Grayson and Keel play Lilli Vanessi and Fred Graham, a divorced acting couple who are uncomfortably reunited to star in a musical adaptation of Shakespeare's *The Taming of the Shrew*. Their fiery off-stage battles hilariously mirror the on-stage taming of the headstrong "Kate" by her suitor, Petruchio. This meta-narrative allows for a seamless blend of modern backstage comedy with classic Shakespearean farce, all set to Porter's witty and sophisticated songs.

Released during the golden age of the movie musical, *Kiss Me, Kate* was also filmed and originally released in 3-D, a popular gimmick at the time. The technology was used to enhance the spectacle, with dancers and props seeming to leap off the screen at the audience. It was one of the first major musicals shot in this format, making it not just a triumph of stage-to-screen adaptation but also a fascinating piece of cinematic history from Hollywood's first 3-D craze.
