Looking for a good Christmas Holiday Movie to watch? Here's the one where the public was first introduced to the song, "White Christmas" (in a movie) by Bing Crosby. It was first introduced on the radio a year before on Bing Crosby's NBC radio show The Kraft Music Hall on Christmas Day, 1941. Enjoy Holiday Inn if you get a chance!
