BING CROSBY: Say, fellas, what did you think of the show? ME: Wow, what a wonderful entertainment! Why, in that first half hour alone you sing that charming ode to laziness, Fred Astaire dances drunk, everything is so fun and witty. BING CROSBY: Thought the people…

Platypus Lord likedHoliday InnNot as good as White Christmas, and the black-face thing is unfortunate, but it's pretty good.

It’s nice, although Fred Astaire is the “bad” guy. Another soft comedy without much problems.
megan likedHoliday Innheard it was a classic and was wholesome besides for that one absolutely insane scene
Faith Stevens likedHoliday InnIt is both good ‘cause it’s iconic but also horrible ‘cause it’s racist
