Critical MeMe

Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Christmas in Connecticut (1945)

Yay! Time for Christmas movies! This was the third (or fourth maybe?) time I've seen this one, but it was new to the boys.

Gracious living columnist whose articles are all about her sprawling farm, luscious meals, home décor, and husband & child is recruited by her boss - a stickler for printing the truth - to play hostess to a young war hero over Christmas. Problem is that she's actually single, living in a cramped apartment, without the faintest clue about how to put together a meal.

Terrific fun to see the columnist and determined friends fake a home and do it well. Awfully predictable, but that's certainly not a drawback in this kind of film. Charmed us all.

B+
