This is the best film ever but try as I might I can not get hold of it for region 2. If anyone knows where or how I can find this film to play on my DVD player, here in England, I would be grateful.
Same goes for "My Beautiful Son" AKA "Strange Relations" in the American market.

VHS : Christmas Holiday [1944]

Christmas Holiday [1944]

Not a particularly huge hit when released in 1944, 'Christmas Holiday' is really an extraordinary film, ahead of its time in my opinion. It is interesting to see Gene Kelly as the 'villian', not something we see often. When I first watched it, I really didn't know what to expect, and I can say that it left a huge impact on me, which led to my watching it twice more. It has to be one of the best (and underrated) black and white film. You won't be disappointed.

Nice DVD transfer too...special features only include a stills gallery, still, there are some nice shots here. Highly recommended film.

Deanna Durbin's characterisations are as sweet and innocent as the childhood memories I have of Saturday TV matinee screenings of her movies. The Deanna Durbin Collection of five Black and White movies provide a good mix of Durbin playing the role of young teenager ('Mad About Music', '100 Men and A Girl', 'Three Smart Girls') through to Durbin's flirtation with Film Noir ('Christmas Holiday').

I feel Durbin is at her best playing younger roles as her age-defying looks and her quintessential wholesomeness fit perfectly within the 1930's American musical film genre. Her films were produced as 'feel good' escapism and they work wonderfully on that level. Sit down with milk and cookies and invite any member of your family, from toddler ... Read More:
