Synopsis
White Christmas (1954) is Michael Curtiz's holiday musical, and you can watch it online on iFILM. Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye play two ex-soldiers who turn a wartime friendship into the most popular song-and-dance act in the country.
The pair crosses paths with the Haynes sisters, Betty and Judy (Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen), and a quick favor snowballs into something bigger. All four head to a Vermont ski lodge run by their old Army general. Trouble is, there's no snow, no guests, and the man is quietly going broke. So the performers cook up a Christmas Eve show to bail out the commander who once led them.
This was the first picture shot in VistaVision, scored with Irving Berlin songs, including the title tune that became the best-selling single ever recorded. No hidden depths here, just warmth, tap routines and sleigh bells. It's for anyone craving an old-fashioned seasonal pick-me-up rather than a story with teeth. Stream White Christmas (1954) online on iFILM.
