"Christmas Holdiay"

[ERD]

It wouod be a perfect time for TCM to show "Christmas Holiday" starring Deanna Durbin and Gene Kelly. It is an excellent film that shows the acting ability of Ms. Durbin.

Hi, ERD, welcome to the fourms.

 

That movie doesn't seem to get too much exposure. I believe Universal owns the rights to it, so hopefully they might let TCM show it sometime soon (though obviously it's not on the schedule for the next 3 months).

This would be a great title for TCM to show as they are supposed to be showing more Universal and Paramount movies next year, in conjunction with their "On Demand" DVD program.

 

I recently caved in and ordered a Region 2 DVD of CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY from Amazon.UK. We got an all-region player for our anniversary this year . Hope to see if for the first time in the near future.

It is playing at the AFI theater near DC. Never heard of this one before. It might be worth a trip.

Congrats, MovieFanLaura - hope you'll enjoy both the movie and of course the multi-region player.

 

(And in case you're interested, there have been a lot of great sales on amazon.co.uk lately)

Thanks for the tip! I should head over to Amazon UK and look at the prices for some of the things I'm interested in. Have been having a great time working my way through Reg. 2 sets of James Mason and Anna Neagle -- also got Durbin's HERS TO HOLD and have watched that one.

No problem. Now that you've place an order from Amazon UK, you'll most likely be getting regular e-mails from them to let you know about all the sales & stuff. They've had a lot of good sales lately on boxed sets and classic movies on DVD.
