DECEMBER 4 & 7
Bing Crosby’s recording of Irving Berlin’s White Christmas was already the #1 record of all time when this film was made. Crosby and Danny Kaye star as World War II vets and Broadway performers who stage a show at a Vermont inn run by their former commanding general (Dean Jagger). Edith Head designed the colorful costumes worn by Rosemary Clooney and Vera Ellen as the Haynes Sisters. (“Lord help the mister who comes between me and my sister…”)
