Jim Hardy (Bing Crosby) and Ted Hanover (Fred Astaire) are a
successful song and dance double act until Jim decides to retire
and become a gentleman farmer following Ted's seduction of his
girlfriend. Jim fails as a farmer, but decides to convert his
property to an inn that is only open on public holidays. He also
finds happiness with the lovely Linda Mason (Marjorie Reynolds) -
that is, until Ted shows up! Packed with Irving Berlin songs,
including 'Let's Say It With Firecrackers' and 'Easter Parade'.
This is also the film which introduced 'White Christmas', a song
that won an Oscar and spawned the movie with the same title in
1954.
Reissued to coincide with the paperback publication of the
definitive Bing biography by Gary Giddins, here is "a collection of
anecdotes and reminiscences that is as warm and witty as any Crosby
performance. [Bing] could have surely become a full-time writer had
his schedule not been taken up with being one of the great
entertainers of the century." -Will Friedwald
