Bing Crosby “White Christmas” Video
This semi-remake of Holiday Inn (the first movie in which Irving Berlin’s perennial, Oscar-winning holiday anthem was featured) doesn’t have much of a story, but what it does have is choice: Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, an all-Irving Berlin song score, classy direction by Hollywood vet Michael Curtiz (Casablanca, The Adventures of Robin Hood), VistaVision (the very first feature ever shot in that widescreen format), and ultrafestive Technicolor! Crosby and Kaye are song-and-dance men who hook up, romantically and professionally, with a “sister” act (Clooney and Vera-Ellen) to put on a Big Show to benefit the struggling ski-resort lodge run by the beloved old retired general (Dean Jagger) of their WWII Army outfit. Crosby is cool, Clooney is warm, Kaye is goofy, and Vera-Ellen is leggy. Songs include: “Sisters” (Crosby and Kaye do their own drag version, too), “Snow,” “We’ll Follow the Old Man,” “Mandy,” “Count Your Blessings Instead of Sheep,” and more. Christmas would be unthinkable without White Christmas.
Hiroshi Nohara is living in an airport terminal. Like Tom Hanks in “The Terminal,” the Japanese man is literally eating and sleeping in Mexico’s Benito Juarez International Airport. He appears to spend all of his time eating, whether from fast-food restaurant or passenger charity. He lives in the food court and sleeps in a chair.
Asked why he has stayed at the airport for almost three months, Hiroshi Nohara replied, “I don’t understand why I’m here. I don’t have a reason.” The stay has taken its toll: his goatee is wildly unkempt, his clothes are tattered, and he smells unwashed. However, he frequently appears in television interviews, appearing almost daily.
Despite his unorthodox accommodations, Hiroshi Nohara is unmovable until his visa expires in March. He appears set to live life in the terminal until then.

The Saharan sand dunes are more barren than ever in Mauritania as tourists have deserted this North African desert nation following attacks blamed on Al-Qaeda last year.
The number of visitors plunged 60 percent in the 2007-2008 season to 29,000, according to the country’s tourism ministry, and hopes are not high for the 2008-2009 season which got underway last month.
The brutal fall has forced the government to plan a “count-attack” to lure tourists back and save the budding industry which employs 45,000 people and brought the country 31 million euros (39 million dollars) last year.
The plan entails stepping up promotional trips for travel writers and marshalling friends of the country to talk it up.
“We’ll even go door-to-door in France and Europe to rehabilitate the image of our country and explain that it is and will remain a safe destination,” the country’s top tourism official, Cisse Mint Boyda, told AFP.
In recent years the country had become increasingly popular among French trekkers, but the Christmas day 2007 murder of four French tourists in the southern town of Aleg by Mauritanians said to be linked to Al-Qaeda started a downward spiral that shows no sign of stopping.
The killing of three soldiers in Atar, Mauritania’s top tourism destination, several days later sent shudders through the industry.
A travel warning by France and the cancellation of the celebrated Paris-Dakar auto rally — which ran through the Mauritanian desert — for security reasons were further blows.
But Mint Boyda insisted that security fears are overblown.
“We are not any more at threat than other Maghreb countries. On the contrary, the security measures taken by the government are sufficiently reassuring,” she said.
