It wouldn’t be Christmas without the 1954 classic Irving Berlin’s White Christmas. With a power house of Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, and Vera-Ellen staring in this musical romantic comedy. Paramount pictures releasing this as the first film in VistaVision became a yearly tradition in most households.
Bob Wallace: Miss Haynes, if you’re ever under a falling building and somebody runs up and offers to pick you up and carry you to safety, don’t think, don’t pause, don’t hesitate for a moment, just spit in his eye.
Betty Haynes: What did that mean?
Bob Wallace: It means we’re going to Vermont.
Some of our favorite parts of this movie are:
- Old Hollywood form of dancing numbers
- First film to be presented in VistaVision
- The star power of this film
- The amazing songs of Irving Berlin
- We need to do what we can to save the Inn
- The blooming romance between Bob and Betty
