Holiday Inn

Holiday Inn is a free Millennium Stage film screening of the 1942 musical starring Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire. The story follows a Connecticut country roadhouse that becomes a nightclub for 15 nights each year. The film introduced “White Christmas,” which won the Academy Award for Best Song, and its Oscar-nominated soundtrack also includes Irving Berlin songs such as “Easter Parade” and “Happy Holiday.” The Holiday Inn hotel chain took its name from the film.
