Holiday Inn (1942)
Director: Mark Sandrich
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Despite opportunities for some fine dancing from Astaire at his most energetic, he's lumbered not only with Crosby, crooning 'White Christmas' for the first time, but also with Marjorie Reynolds, clearly no replacement for Ginger Rogers. But the Irving Berlin score, including 'Easter Parade' and 'Let's Say It with Firecrackers' (which gives Fred his best moment) makes up for the thin story about a love triangle at the eponymous vacation resort.Author: GA
