Holiday Inn
(1942)

RATING:60%
FORMAT:DVD



Easily one of the most contrived and absurd plots ever devised: The acting, songs and characterizations are equally mediocre and there is no theme to speak of.

However, as usual with the man, Fred ASTAIRE manages to achieve the seemingly-impossibly with his feet. His grace, style, wit and sheer sophistication almost make up for the failings of this movie.

Nowhere near as good as White Christmas.
