The Razzleberry Dressing Song from “Mr. Magoo’s Christmas Carol”

Mr. Magoo’s Christmas Carol has some of the best movie songs of all time, from “Funny Girl’s” composer Jule Styne and lyricist Bob Merrill. This is one of my favorites, with Jack Cassidy as Bob Cratchit.

This Christmas: Line Dance

Posted on December 15, 2015 at 8:00 am

I’m going to post clips from ten of my favorite holiday films, starting with one I recommend every year, This Christmas. This delightful line dance scene comes at the very end and it is especially fun because it is the actors having fun on screen, not their characters. Watch for Delroy Lindo (“Blood & Oil”), Loretta Devine (“Being Mary Jane”), Columbus Short (“Scandal”), Regina King and Idris Elba (both nominated for Golden Globes this year), and Lauren London (“The Game”).
