The most beautiful "THANK YOU" in all of Hollywood history. This Christmas classic shows that no matter how important everybody thinks we are or were, we need a reminder that we REALLY made a difference.

Too bad Bing was an a****** in real life, he told his first wife that her job was to raise HIS children so he can have a career and a life and that should be enough for her!! he used to beat his kids with a belt, well his first group of kids, he had four boys with his first wife Gary,the twins Phillip and Dennis, and Lindsey and later on he got remarried again and had Harry Jr, Mary Francis, and Nathaniel, and when he had his three children later on he said he felt different about fatherhood. Most of his children are dead now, I believe the only ones that are still alive are Mary and Harry, two of his children committed suicide. I forget which two. Denise Crosby was Dennis's daughter, she starred on Star Trek the next generation, I believe Mary Crosby was on Dallas and Harry Crosby was in Friday the 13th. Gary said that every night his father would tell him to come into his office and he got weighed and if he didn't pass the weight he got whipped with the belt. I don't remember what one of his children had said this but he said that they Weren't abused even though Gary said so. I don't remember which brother said they weren't but he didn't back up Gary's claims. Too bad that Bing was such an abusive a******!!

Consummate professional, led his men from the front, stood between his men and any superior officer who had hair brain schemes about doing Chansey dodgy stupid maneuvers with his men and women. he knew everyone of us and almost everything about every one of us.

Even tho this is just a movie, the sentiments remain the same. Pride in your country and for every solidier who put their lives on the line for us.

Any time after November 1st through the last snow of the season is when I'll watch White Christmas. This film illustrates the contemporary attitudes, for better or worse, of that era in which it was made. Danny Kaye's line after Bing Crosby says, "We slept then he slept" is "Then he woke up and nobody slept for 48 hours" stops the show in its tracks and encapsulates the dire nature of The Battle of the Bulge in that _solitary_ moment.

I watch this movie during the run-up to Christmas between Thanksgiving and Christmas Day then any time it snows ❄ until the last snowfall of the season. The scene where Bob and Phil are watching the General in the theater as the Haynes Sister are performing strikes me for this dialog between Bing and Danny, Bob: "We ate, then he ate. We slept, then he slept" Phil: "Yeah, but then he woke up and nobody slept for forty-eight hours." This brief exchange goes right to the heart of the G.I. soldiering experience and it has only grown in my esteem over the decades.
