Holiday Inn

Two retiring showmen (Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire) start up a New England country inn with the unique and, one would think, self-defeating idea of being open only on national holidays. However, in this delightful fluff-fest, they achieve instantaneous success. Conflicts arise when they fall for the same woman (Marjorie Reynolds), and sparks fly as do their feet in a variety of inventive, holiday-themed song-and-dance productions. Irving Berlin's 'White Christmas' was introduced in this film.
