Last night, I watched 'Holiday Inn' with Bing Crosby & Fred Astaire. It was cute. I would visit the Holiday Inn. Basically, Bing opens an Inn that is only open on the holidays including 4th of July, President's day, and the big ones like Christmas.
The only thing was that this movie was made in 1942 and it is SO politically incorrect. Here's why:
1. Bing has a black maid named 'Mamie'
2. They are open for President's Day and sing songs about Lincoln freeing the slaves
3. During the Lincoln performance, the WHITE members of the show paint their faces black!!
4. They have Mamie singing to her children about how Lincoln was basically the savior for slavery(not entirely true)
