Remake This #ChristmasEdition Christmas in Connecticut (1945)


As a palate cleanser after her Oscar nominated role in "Double Indemnity," Barbara Stanwyck was ready for some lighter fare. It came in the form of an adapted story by Aileen Hamilton, reworked by Lionel Houser and the Oscar winning Adele Comandini. But after distribution and opening to mediocre numbers, "it was considered no great shakes, nice certainly, charming absolutely and popular, but it wasn't a film that had looked at legs, meaning it wasn't destined to be running very long."
