Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all who celebrate from your friends at the Rad Revival House!
In our very first holiday season film review, we present the 1949 Christmas rom-com classic, HOLIDAY AFFAIR. Not your standard holiday romantic comedy fluff, HOLIDAY AFFAIR stars screen legends Robert Mitchum and Janet Leigh as Steve and Connie, two retail workers caught in a whirlwind romance amidst the busy New York Christmas shopping season. Stuck in the middle of their love bond is Connie's precocious young son Timmy (the adorable, scene stealing child actor Gordon Gebert) and her fiancé, decent but annoyingly straight-laced attorney Carl.
Those tired of schmaltzy holiday rom-coms will be pleasantly surprised on the high quality behind HOLIDAY AFFAIR. Filled with great performances by its cast and armed with clever dialogue, HOLIDAY AFFAIR is a must-view for cinephiles looking for a brilliant picture to add to their Christmas film archive!
