“Oh Gee, I Wish I was back in the Army!” — written by Irving Berlin, who composed both the music and

A classic, especially during the Christmas season. This is more than one of those timeless classics. You will pull out and dust off every Christmas. Sort of an adaptation of the movie “Holiday Inn”. You should already know the story. Basically, a retired general owns an inn that is teetering on closing due to lack of funds. It is revived when his old comrades from military days, a song-and-dance team of Wallace and Davis (Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye) and a pair of performing sisters (Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen), transform the Columbia Inn into a Holiday Inn. There is a surprise ending, so do not peek ahead. You probably know all the songs. Yes, more than a movie, it is a good platform for many Irving Berlin pieces. DVD or streaming in VistaVision, this is worth rewatching. The DVD has a commentary with Rosemary Clooney. On a personal note, the general still drove a Jeep. It may be for ambiance, but I used to work on M151 Jeeps when they were still being used in 1968. Later, they were replaced with the Humvee (HMMWV). I put Humvees together as kits depending on purpose. You may want to watch "Holiday Inn" (1942) to get in the mood.

Epic Production! Grab the kids grab the snacks for yourself and anyone else you love build a memory

For anyone! the sounds the feelings you’ll be humming these tunes for the rest of your life! Rosemary Clooney diva voice bing Crosby the ultimate crooner and the dance numbers are Fire!, or Wow! This is the second version. The 1st version with Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire from the 30s is good, but it’s black and white and endearing, if I had to choose I prefer the technicolor version (which is the 2nd) but there’s something to be said for the original Fred Astaire dancing introduced the next generation to him. The gent is a legend.
