DOUBLE FEATURED (2-Movies-For-The-Price-of-1) with the 1940 holiday fave THE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER!
It's a dazzling Barbara Stanwyck as a lifestyle writer who can conjure the perfect home in print—but can’t fry an egg in real life. When her boss decides she should host a war hero for Christmas, she scrambles to find a farmhouse, a husband, and a whole lot of domestic bliss. There’s just one other problem: the war hero is charming and handsome, and he doesn’t seem to mind that she’s not exactly as traditional as she pretends to be. This warm, witty romp captures the swirl of changing women’s roles after WWII and dreams up an idealized peacetime holiday.
"Delightfully cheerful screwball comedy that is especially suited for the Christmas holidays." - Dennis Schwartz
"A gem of a holiday comedy: Stanwyck is adorable." - James Sanford, Kalamazoo Gazette
