Christmas in Connecticut

Original review by Top 100 Christmas Movies · Independent & ad-free

1945 - G - 101 MINS - COMEDY

Top cast: Barbara Stanwyck, Dennis Morgan

In a nutshell

A food writer who has lied about being the perfect housewife must try to cover her deception when her boss and a returning war hero invite themselves to her home for a traditional family Christmas.

Our review

A hilarious farce offering seasonal folly for this now somewhat dated movie, sweetened by a great cast and some nice screwball touches with a wonderful Christmas set design.
