White Christmas is a 1954 American musical romantic comedy film directed by Michael Curtiz and starring Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, and Vera-Ellen, loosely based on the 1942 film Holiday Inn.[3] Filmed in Technicolor, White Christmas features the songs of Irving Berlin, including the title song, "White Christmas". Produced and distributed by Paramount Pictures, the film is notable for being the first to be released in VistaVision, a widescreen process developed by Paramount that entailed using twice the surface area of standard 35mm film; this large-area negative was used to yield finer-grained standard-sized 35mm prints.

This film looks fantastic on netflix. The sets look 60 years old, but the transfer to digital is amazing.

I loved the plot. The final sequence is very heartfelt. Nice humor mixed in throughout too. The frequent pointing out the arm injury was hilarious.

I was a bit surprised to see the gals didn't really have much of an acting career after this. They seemed like fine actors to me.

I'll probably add this to the christmas rotation every 5th year or so.

Did you know the song "White Christmas" is racist? There are some ignorant people out there.
