Netflix has “Christmas in Connecticut” on DVD. That’s good because Homer likes to watch it once a year or so.

I have never been able to stomach Barbara Stanwyck.

I think she is unattractive.

Probably because she looks very much like an unpleasant relative-by-marriage. Not her fault.

Saw this and as a kid at the time thought this was a wierd movie. There was a music score with lyrics that was featured in it that was sorta neat. The music as a carol never made the charts can’t remember the title.

It wasn’t until a few years ago that I actually watched this movie. Glad I did and regret not giving it a chance.

I am a Barbara Stanwyck fan to a point. It took Big Valley reruns on ME-TV to appreciate Babs.

It WAS a sort of weird move to release “Christmas in Connecticut” in July.

Yeah, she creeped me out too. I don’t know why.

We love Christmas in Connecticut. Though we always joke how we’ve never seen Connecticut look like it does in the movie. :-)
