After three bumbling Soviet agents fail in their mission to retrieve a straying Soviet composer from Paris, the beautiful, ultra-serious Ninotchka is sent to complete their mission and to retrieve them. She starts out condemning the decadent West, but gradually falls under its spell—with the help of an American movie producer. A remake of Ninotchka (1939).
Editor's Verdict
"Based on the provided plot summary and genre information, 'Silk Stockings' (1957) is a romantic musical comedy centered on Cold War espionage and cultural clash, showing no indication of taking place during the Christmas season or centering on Christmas themes or iconography."
