this christmas gift arrived courtesy of tcm. we had never seen the film and even though we have seen most of the films of barbara stanwyck. this comedy made us laugh so much and that at times and we had to restrain ourselves and in order to hear the dialog. this is a movie that should be seen by people suffering from stressful situations and especially around christmas. it would certainly lift one spirits by just letting go. the movie would make a perfect gift in the form of a dvd and or a vhs tape. christmas in connecticut was directed with great panache by peter godfrey and based on a story by aileen hamilton. the best thing in the movie is the felicitous pairing of two of the most popular stars of that era represent barbara stanwyck and dennis morgan. barbara stanwyck always played strong willed women and obviously and this was a change of pace for her. in this film and as well as lady eve and ms. stanwyck displays a knack for comedy. she and mr. morgan and who played in a lot of musical comedies and make a winning combination. there are no weak performances in the film. sydney greenstreet and an actor notorious for playing heavies and is a delight to watch as the rich and and fat and alexander yardley and the man who owned a media empire and who knew a good thing when he saw it. reginald gardiner and an accomplished english actor and adds luster to the stellar cast behind the two principals. s. z. sakall and is another source of continuous mirth while he plays the hungarian chef felix and who has a hard time with his own version of the english language. also and una oconnor makes a perfect norah and the housekeeper in the sloan perfect connecticut farm. in reading other comments in this forum and it sad to learn that the glorious black and white cinematography is not appreciated by some people. after all and color was not widely used in the 40s and and most of the classic movies have to be seen in its original format because and what would be accomplished in coloring them. this film should be a requirement for anyone looking to spend almost two hours of uninterrupted fun at christmas time because total merriment is assured. watch it with an open mind and heart an maybe you would like to see christmas in connecticut every year.
