I participated in the Wives of Faith Blog Carnival not long ago, and now they are doing another one in honor of the Christmas Season. Click here to read other entries, or participate yourself!
Today, day 1, we are asked what our favorite Christmas movie is. I have to say White Christmas, hands down!
I have a special place in my heart for Bing Crosby, as a singer, not as a family man, and his voice is very calming! And Rosemary Clooney is BEAUTIFUL! Not your "modern" woman skinny, but I prefer her look to anything that I see in recent hollywood. Danny Kaye is a hoot, clean comedy, that even your tween aged children can understand. It doesn't hurt that most of my favorite movies have some sort of music and dancing routines either.
I love the simple message of movies from that era. Nothing overly ridicoulus. Nothing trashy. Just good fun!
I have the special edition DVD that was available at starbucks about 4 years ago. And, it was my first time away from home. I was a nanny in Maryland. It came with a bonus DVD where Rosemary Clooney talks about the "behind the scenes" things you never knew....like the blonde who plays her sister, couldn't sing a lick, so she lip-synced everything! And, on the other end of that coin, Rosemary had a LOT of trouble with the dance numbers!
If you've never seen the movie....I bet you know the song!
Stopping by from the WOF carnival! I've actually never seen that movie but have heard nothing but good things about it! :)
