    Sad tragedy of two gay infantrymen who are forced into heteronormative domesticity in order to keep their love for song and dance viable in '50s era Vermont.

    Every Christmas Eve I put on my silly paper crown and I turn on my silly tv and say “Wow! Look at her outfit!” every single scene

    The scene where Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye lip sync “Sisters” invented comedy

    All you need to know about me is once during a makeout in college I stopped and said “in ways, you are far superior to my cocker spaniel” because of this movie

    It wouldn't be Christmas without Vera-Ellen's eye acting.

    No movie with people drinking buttermilk can ever earn 5 stars I'm sorry

    5.8 - Am I a Scrooge for not loving this? It’s aesthetically beautiful - costumes and sets - & kind of sweet, & a few songs are fun. I don’t have too many strong detractors but overall, I just didn’t care that much. (Overlooking problematic elements as a product of the times.)

    White Christmas

    I kinda liked it but take everything I say with a grain of salt: Heartwarming, but not particularly Christmassy until the end. Entertaining in an old-timey sort of way but nothing outstanding about the story besides since overused tropes. Glad I watched it though not a new fav…

    Visually it's amazing with bright colors, and all of it culminating in the end is great. Unfortunately, for the majority of the runtime, I didn't find this film interesting much besides what I first mentioned.

    White Christmas

    A classic song and dance musical from the golden age. Not the annual-must-watch that some may claim, but worth a watch once for cinefiles. Holiday Inn is much better.

    White Christmas

    Maybe it’s because I went in with pure scepticism but I really enjoyed this film. I’d watch it again - even if it’s beautifully predictable

It's a nice, if undemanding, Yuletide treat.

Everyone works hard at the business of singing, dancing and cracking jokes, but the stuff that they work with is minor.
