Entertainment Reviews:
Loaded with a wealth of songs, it's meaty, not too kaleidoscopic and yet closely knit for a compact 100 minutes of tiptop filmusical entertainment.

Not the best film for either of the film's stars, but Astaire proves that he can dance even without Ginger.

Rating: 3/4 --
Although all the holiday's are covered, this is really a Christmas movie at heart. Overshadowed by its more famous (and overrated) remake, Holiday Inn deserves more credit than it gets.

Between the toe twinkling and ivory tickling it's still a comfortable, cosy way to pass an afternoon.

Despite not being the success it could have been, this can still inspire a festive glow.

Product Description:
Two retiring show people start up a New England country inn with the unique and, one would think, self-defeating idea of being open only on national holidays; however, in this delightful fluff-fest, they achieve instantaneous success. Conflicts arise when they fall for the same woman, and sparks fly -as do their feet - in a variety of inventive, holiday themed song-and-dance productions. Perhaps the best film ever inspired by a song. Irving Berlin's "White Christmas" was introduced in this film.
