Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye star in this heartwarming story of two song and dance men who help their old wartime commanding officer drum up business for his failing
Vermont inn over the holidays by bringing their show up to the inn. As they prepare the show, they both find love with an old army buddy’s two gorgeous sisters, excellent song and dance women in their own right. The selflessness, generosity, and loyalty these men show for their old general are what make this movie an excellent Christmas story. And Irving Berlin’s array of show-stopping and uplifting songs, including the Academy Award-nominated “Count Your Blessings Instead of Sheep” and perennial favorite “White Christmas,” have established this film as one of our most enduring holiday classics. |
