Well, both movies did feature Bing Crosby singing "I Dream of a White Christmas". It's interesting, comparing the sensibility differences between the eras in which the movies were made. One has that dreadful blackface number. The other had the "Minstrel" number, but dispensed with the blackface. Thank goodness. Also, "White Christmas" had Danny Kaye, that filthy Democrat, of whom I've always been a fan. Ever seen him in the Twilight Zone's adaptation of Ellison's "Paladin of the Lost Hour"?

Oops. I did forget to include "Miracle on 34th Street" on my list. The original version, of course. Not the dreadful 1990s version.
