Summary: The Best Film You'll Ever Get Sick Of
Review: This is a fantastic movie, a superb, upbeat feel-good film of first-rate proportions. I won't buy the video because I am absolutely sick of seeing it. We watched it every year while I was growing up, and then I acquired step-kids who insist we watch it every year still, every time it appears on TV, and I think I will upchuck if I have to see this thing one more time. I know all the dialogue and songs by heart, even the dumbest of all dumb songs, "Choreography," and occasionally one will play itself in my head on some miserable night when I can't sleep. When that happens, I count the blessing that I won't EVER have to watch this thing again, with Buh-buh-buh-Bing and Danny hamming it up big time. But OH, those legs of Vera Ellen! It's terrible I won't ever see those beautiful legs again, unless I go to the Bad Place after I die and they make me watch White Christmas every day. I'm also sick of The Wizard of Oz, but that's another story. I'm off now, to follow the Old Man wherever he wants to go...

Summary: A Holiday Classic
Review: I have loved this movie since I first saw it as a teenager. I'm excited to discover that it will be on DVD in a few months. It's the story of two men, Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye, who combine their musical talents after WWII and take it to the big stage. Broadway. They head down to Florida after they're told to check out two promising singing sisters, Vera Ellen and Rosemary Clooney. Danny Kaye's character sees this as an opportunity to hook up his old pal with one of the girls. He talks Bob (Bing Crosby) into going to Vermont with the sisters, who have a singing engagement at an inn. When they arrive, they are surprised to see that their general is running the inn. The boys cook up a scheme to honor their commanding officer and bring in business to the inn. "Not bad, but always expensive." A great holiday movie filled with romance and unforgettable songs. Including "Sisters", "Mandy", "Count Your Blessings Instead of Sheep", "Choreography" and "White Christmas". A real holiday treat.

Summary: Was, and still is, my favorite Christmas movie!
Review: I have seen White Christmas every year since I was a little girl. First, in black and white and then, in color. I know. I'm dating myself as being old, because when I first saw this, we had an old black and white RCA television.

Now they've remastered the video, and it's just beautiful. The color is so spectacular, especially the red of Rosemary Clooney's and Vera Ellen's dresses near the end of the movie.

The movie always makes me cry near the end when they open the big outside door and show the snow.

The music is great and I still watch it every year. Now I have it on video, I watch it about ten times every year. I live in San Antonio, Texas, which is extremely hot in July, but there I am on my couch, in the middle of July and August, watching White Christmas.

Well, gotta quit my review. Just talking about White Christmas makes me want to go watch it again.

Summary: A day-after-Thanksgiving tradition!
Review: This is one of my all-time favorite movies. I know it's corny and predictable, but isn't life unpredictable enough! I know every word by heart, as do my kids. We joke that this movie is the official beginning of Christmas and watch is on Friday after Thanksgiving every year, then a few time more after that! The music is wonderful - the dancing sublime. How did Vera-Ellen walk on those legs! Love it, love it, love it!

Summary: Fantastic movie!
Review: Once again, the critics were wrong. My family watch this movie every Christmas season. I guess what I like most about it is the Americana, the class, the happy ending. Bing is his usual hip, swinging self with frequent comments like, "Everybody's got a little larceny operating inside," or his references to "angles". LONG LIVE BING! Bing is happening, baby! What the critics fail to realize is movies like "Howards End" and "A River Runs Through It" are great for winning Oscars (and putting you into comatose sleep), but the public enjoys the fun movies just as much if not more. No one cares if there'a a little corn in them....they're FUN! They make you smile and feel good. Critics....here's a dollar...buy a clue!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Truly a must have video!
Review: There is a great nostalgia, warm & fuzzy feeling you get from this movie even with all the beautiful gowns & glitz. I love Danny Kaye and how priceless it is to see him crack up quiet, reserved Bing lip synching to "Sisters'!

Summary: Technicolor, great story line; put in personal video library
Review: I grew up watching Technicolor MGM/20th Century Fox/Paramount, etc. Movies. In these movies stars were glamourous, handsome, wore glizty gowns, tuxedos, and tails. That is what a movie star looked like back in those those days, classy, real classy.

They always had a (Let's put on a show scene) that included wonderful costumes, dance numbers, and everybody lived happily ever after. I was shaped and formed by these movies; I really enjoyed seeing them and being in a fantasty world for two hours. These movies helped give me an idea of what glamour and drama were back in the turbulent 60's. I think White Christmas is a great movie because it combines many of the elements that make a good movie. It has two love stories, not just one with Kaye and Crosby. Also, they play off of each other wonderfully. Rosemary Clooney sang and did a spectacular job. There are fun song in this movie such as (Snow), and (Gee, I Wish I Was Back in the Army) that I have never been able to forget. I have seen this movie at least 25 times and it is still a great movie. Irving Berlin's songs you never forget. The last scene around the Christmas tree is spectacular, with the costumes, the ballerinas, and the title song. Now that's entertainment; old-fashioned Hollywood style; done with style and class.
