White Christmas

White Christmas (1954) more movies like this

directed by Michael Curtiz
featuring Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, Vera-Ellen, Dean Jagger

White Christmas, Paramount's belated follow-up to the 1942 hit Holiday Inn, was the studio's first VistaVision production. A veritable warehouse full of oldie-but-goodie Irving Berlin tunes are woven into the film's simplistic plotline, along with a handful of new songs, of which "What Can You Do With a General?" is the least memorable. Bing ...

The Anglo-American musicomedy Happy Go Lovely is set in Edinburgh, Scotland, during a major film festival.

Love Happy

Love Happy (1949) more movies like this

directed by David Miller
featuring Groucho Marx, Harpo Marx, Chico Marx, Ilona Massey, Vera-Ellen

The Marx Brothers' final starring feature Love Happy began life as a solo vehicle for Harpo. The financiers wouldn't go for this, insisting that all three Marx boys appear on screen. Thus, Chico was hastily written into the proceedings, while Groucho made what amounted to a guest appearance as narrator and last-minute problem solver. The story ...

Danny Kaye's The Kid From Brooklyn is a virtual scene-for-scene remake of Harold Lloyd's The Milky Way (1936), with music and Technicolor added to the proceedings.

The Belle of New York

The Belle of New York (1952) more movies like this

directed by Charles Walters
featuring Fred Astaire, Vera-Ellen, Marjorie Main, Keenan Wynn, Alice Pearce

A lesser Fred Astaire effort, Belle of New York is set during the turn of the century. Astaire plays a footloose and fancy-free playboy who falls in love with Salvation Army lass Vera-Ellen. To prove his worth to the girl, Astaire breaks down and gets a job. Naturally, there's plenty of terpsichorean activity from the two stars, but nothing truly ...

Three Little Words

Three Little Words (1950) more movies like this

directed by Richard Thorpe
featuring Fred Astaire, Richard "Red" Skelton, Vera-Ellen, Arlene Dahl, Keenan Wynn

MGM's Three Little Words is a "twin" musical biopic, covering the lives and careers of songwriters Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby. Fred Astaire plays Kalmar, a frustrated magician, while Red Skelton is cast as Ruby, a wannabe baseball player. After "meeting cute" during a disastrous vaudeville show, the oil-and-water Bert and Harry become a popular ...
