Christmas in Connecticut screening

2018-Dec-12 @ 19:30 - 21:11

The Dryden will screen Christmas in Connecticut (Peter Godfrey, U.S. 1945, 101 min., 16mm) as part of the (Mostly) Happy Holidays series.

Barbara Stanwyck plays Elizabeth Lane, a lifestyle columnist who must hide the fact that her writing is based on fabrications and borrowed recipes. Jefferson Jones (Dennis Morgan), an injured war hero, is entranced by Elizabeth's writing and, through his nurse, contacts the magazine to ask to spend Christmas on Elizabeth's farm. The publisher, unaware of Elizabeth's deception, agrees, and she is forced to find a husband, a baby, and a Connecticut farmstead before Christmas. When the writer and the soldier meet, and sparks fly, the situation becomes even more complicated.
