Reviews for Christmas in Connecticut
The great Barbara Stanwyck shines in this screwball comedy, which is part of Warner's DVD of a trio of cheerful holiday movies, including A Christmas Carol and Boys Town, co-starring Tracy and Mickey Rooney.
It's fluffy as cotton batting, but on a cold winter's night and with a tree trimmed nearby, Christmas in Connecticut still manages to entertain in its own modest way.
