Tis the day after Christmas and I’m posting some holiday fare. It’s a short film made in 1945.  It tells the “no room at the inn” story in then contemporary drag.

It’s good but its pedigree is more interesting than the film. It was the first directorial outing for the great Don Siegel and an early outing for cinematographer Robert Burks who would go on to shoot most of Hitchcock’s films from 1951 to 1964.
