Summary:
Going my way (127 min.): When old and fading St. Dominic's Church gets a new priest (Crosby), things are bound to change. For starters, young Father O'Malley meets the crusty old Father Fitzgibbon (Barry Fitzgerald), who doesn't think much of him or his ideas. The two have their differences but O'Malley is able to inspire some neighborhood roughnecks to open their hearts and minds in a way the old priest simply could not do. Holiday Inn (101 min.): "Story about two talented pals, a singer (Bing Crosby) and a dancer (Fred Astaire) who compete for the affections of the same pretty lady (Virginia Dale). But when she dumps them both, the singer comes up with the idea of running a tavern that's open only on holidays"--Container.
