Holiday Inn
When Jim Hardy (Bing Crosby) decides he wants to leave show business, he opens a new “Holiday Inn” which is only open on holidays. The music and dances are themed around all different holidays, so Christmas is really only a small part of the overall movie. Despite the lack of Christmas focus, the song “White Christmas” was originally written for Holiday Inn, even if the movie White Christmas (also starring Crosby and featuring the song) is far more associated with the Christmas classic.
Miracle on 34th Street (1955)
