A Classic Christmas Movie Airs Tonight on TV!


Holiday Affair, the 1949 version,
starring Janet Leigh and Robert Mitchum,
is the Midnight Movie tonight on TCM!



DVD Synopsis:

Love is even lovelier during the holidays.

Even though he recently lost his job as a department-store clerk, Steve Mason buys an electric train set for a child he scarcely knows. It must be Christmastime.

Robert Mitchum and Janet Leigh are warmly matched in Holiday Affair, a seasonal favorite scripted by Isobel Lenhart (later to adapt Mitchum's The Sundowners) and directed by Hope/Crosby "road movies" veteran Don Hartman. Mitchum plays Mason, helping a child who'd otherwise find disappointment under the Christmas tree. The boy's war-widow mom (Leigh) notes the gesture, and she's drawn to the handsome stranger. But will she abandon the security of the prosperous attorney (Wendell Corey) dating her for the charm of this unemployed man who puts his money where his heart is?



*See this Christmas Movie and more in the Christmas TV Schedule!
