I still think is the greatest of all American Christmas films. Do I even need to tell you the title?

One thing’s for sure, Jean Shepherd could write. Oh, and Merry Christmas/Happy Chinese-food-and-movie-day to one and all!
Since it’s a nostalgic bittersweet, family-oriented musical comedy set in the turn of the century midwest starring Judy Garland, some of you might assume that “Meet Me in St. Louis” is kind of a drippy, saccharine movie. Trust me, it’s sweet but anything but drippy and established Vincente Minelli as one of the greatest of Hollywood directors. If your cable system has TCM, you can see for yourself; it’s showing at 10:00 pst/1:00 a.m. est tonight.
In the meantime, here’s big sister Judy Garland trying to console Margaret O’Brien with one of the loveliest pop Christmas songs ever written. This always gets to me.
I’ve been staying up late a lot lately trying to finish various projects before the holiday lull. I wish I could be as energetic right now at 1:30 a.m. as Gene Kelly, Debbie Reynolds, and Donald O’Connor were in 1953’s “Singin’ in the Rain.” Of course, they’d just decided to make a musical. More people should do that.
