WHITE CHRISTMAS
Introduction by Philip Harwood
Members $10 | Public $15
Join us for a big screening showing of one of the most
beloved holiday movies of all time! Bob (Bing Crosby) and Phil (Danny
Kaye) meet during the Second World War, where the latter persuades the
former, a Broadway performer, that they should become an entertainment duo.
Following the War, the two become a huge hit, eventually becoming musical producers.
When the pair audition sisters Betty (Rosemary Clooney) and Judy (Vera-Ellen),
they are smitten, though Bob needs some persuading before he will let Betty
know how he feels. When the foursome ends up at a Vermont inn owned by the
men’s former commanding officer, now fallen on hard times, Bob puts out a call
on national television for their former division to come to the inn on
Christmas Eve. With a treasury of songs by Irving Berlin,
including, of course, White Christmas (first heard in
1942’s Holiday Inn), enjoying this on the big screen is a must for
any fan of musicals. (USA, 1954, 120 min., Color, DCP /
Director: Michael Curtiz)
