Movie Reviews of White Christmas
Movie Review: I think some reviewer got a bad DVD...
Summary: 5 Stars
I work for Warner Bros., and I am well aware of the fastidious care that Paramount took with this DVD re-mastering of White Christmas in 2000. I am thrilled with the copy that I bought and think it looks fantastic considering the early era of Eastman color negative with which it was photographed. The luscious Technicolor saturations come through with flying colors. The remarkable VistaVision resolution translates very well to DVD.Are there technologies in 2002 that can get rid of some of the subtle color fluctuations? yes there are..., and you can see it on Roman Holiday and Sunset Blvd., and most effectively on Singin' in the Rain, but the technology wasn't available in 2000.
Regardless, I think this DVD is a fabulous buy.
Movie Review: As Much a Part of Christmas as Santa Claus
Summary: 5 Stars
Containing some of the most memorable Christmas songs on film, Irving Berlin's White Christmas is a delightful family film that wraps comedy, romance, drama, and yule-tide cheer into a holiday package that can be enjoyed over and over again. Bing Crosby and Danny Kay are fantastic together as the musical duo of Wallace and Davis, who end up putting on a Christmas show at the Vermont Inn of their old commanding office from the war. Danny Kaye gives a fantastic physical comedy performance, and Bing Crosby is at his crooning best as he romances, sometimes unsuccessfully, Rosemary Clooney. To all who love the heartwarming holiday traditions of an old-style movie that sings as true today as it did then, this is the one for you.Movie Review: Classic Christmas Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This is probably the only musical I would ever recommend. It's a great old movie, with Danny Kaye and Bing Crosby starring as old army buddies who become successful in show business after World War II. They meet the Haynes sisters, played by Rosemary Clooney and Vera Ellen, and end up going to Vermont with them for the holidays. Bing and Rosemary fall in love, pushed together by the other two, while the four of them try to do something nice for a retired general who is now running the Vermont inn where they are staying.
The movie has some good music and dancing, a decent story and a lot of laughs. It's one of two Christmas movies I have to watch every year (along with "It's a Wonderful Life").
Movie Review: White Christmas Still a Thrilll
Summary: 5 Stars
Ozark Actors Theatre in Rolla, Missouri is doing the stage play of
White Christmas Nov 8-18, 2007 and often directors ask the cast not to view a movie in order to help them develop their own character. But in this case we were encouraged to watch the pros. Bing, Danny, Rosemary, Vera, Dean....Just a great classic with great Irving Berlin music.It's hard to believe it didn't become a stage play musical until 2004. OAT is thrilled to bring this to a stage in rural Missouri, and the audiences are escaping to Vermont for a joyous holiday event, as we all have over the years with Bing and friends in the movie.. And the Rosemary Clooney reflection on the project was great too. John & Peggy from Rolla
Movie Review: Why White Christmas is one of the best movies around
Summary: 5 Stars
I would just like to say that I absolutely love this movie. Not only is it a quintessential Christmas movie, but it stars famous names like Bing Crosby and Rosemarie Clooney. Now, people my age might not remember these names anymore, but regardless, everyone of all ages should still watch this movie. My favorite part about it is that it required pure talent; there was nothing fake or phony about the elegance of their dancing or the pure sounds of their voices. I wish there were more movies today that weren't just awed because of their special effects or computer graphics. Everyone should see this movie to know what real talent is and to just enjoy the wit and romance of this movie in general!
