White Christmas

Christmas Eve, 1944 - somewhere in Europe. After staging a show in honour of their departing commanding officer, Major General Waverly, a platoon of U.S. troops comes under heavy artillery fire. Phil Davis saves the life of fellow soldier Bob Wallace, a popular Broadway entertainer who, to show his gratitude, agrees to form a partnership with Phil after the war. Despite Bob's initial misgivings, the double act proves to be a great success. Whilst the duo are performing in Florida, Phil decides to take an interest in Bob's love life and introduces him to two sisters of an old army pal, Betty and Judy. Pursued by their aggrieved landlord, the latter hastily leave town, with Phil and Bob's help, and the four end up at a skiing lodge in Vermont run by General Waverley. Having learned that the General is facing financial ruin because he is unable to attract enough business, Phil and Bob decide to put on a glitzy show at his hotel. When Betty suspects that Bob intends to use the event for his own financial gain, she walks out on him and heads back to New York, just as Bob realises she is the only girl for him...
