The review

Two song-and-dance men and a woman. One of them opens an inn that performs only on holidays. Bing Crosby, Fred Astaire. The rivalry is the romance. White Christmas is introduced here, which is why December still puts this on. It had a large musical gross in 1942. I like the song. Liking the song is not the same as clearing the picture.

A Lincoln's Birthday number is done in blackface. That number is not a footnote. I won't stretch it into a lecture, and I won't skip past it either. If you want the song, hear the song without calling the holiday slate clean. I wouldn't leave this on for children as seasonal wallpaper. Tell the room what the Lincoln number is, or find another road to White Christmas.

Journal

Keep Holiday Inn in the record.

No house has filed a sentence for this yet.

Live Historic number 31. Yours can differ.

The glance

Household and Piety and Courage and Republic and Temperance and Truth and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Is a marriage, a parent, or a child a real life here, or just a prop?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Naughty Marietta

44 instead of 31

Naughty Marietta is still a musical film, and it scores 44 instead of 31. What you gain is piety: She refuses the marriage already arranged and leaves by ship.

The eight

6
Industry
One of them opens an inn, and the holiday shows are the work.
3
Household
The romance is a rivalry, not a marriage or a child in a house.
2
Piety
A Lincoln's Birthday number is done in blackface, and no one stops it.
3
Courage
The inn is a bet on holidays, not a loss taken for somebody else.
2
Republic
Lincoln's Birthday is staged in blackface, a public day misused.
3
Temperance
The film keeps adding holiday numbers, blackface included.
3
Truth
White Christmas begins here, in a film that also plays blackface.
3
Stewardship
People kept the song; the blackface number was in the same picture.

A Search for Evidence

Not for us: they check a marriage through looks the occupants never allowed.

The review

McCutcheon sends a woman and a detective to hotel doors that aren't theirs. The keyhole is the tool. The marriage is being investigated by a look the occupants did not allow. Adult. I'm not describing the rooms, and I'm not putting this on.

I've wanted to know if a promise broke. This answers that want with a peep. The detective has a job, and the method is still a door nobody opened for them. I don't call that a clean search. The offense and the product are the same look.

Blood and Sand

43 instead of 31

Blood and Sand is still a drama film, and it scores 43 instead of 31. What you gain is courage: The boy risks the arena, and the arena is allowed to ruin him.

The eight

Industry
Detective work is real, and the instrument is a keyhole.
4
Household
The marriage is the case, not a life the look respects.
2
Piety
They do not stop at doors the occupants kept shut.
3
Courage
The searchers take a risk the people inside never accepted.
3
Republic
Other rooms belong to someone, and the look takes them anyway.
2
Temperance
One forbidden look is built to make you want another.
4
Truth
Evidence is the aim, got by a look nobody allowed.
2
Stewardship
The occupants are left with a search they did not permit.
