Synopsis
Christmas in Connecticut (1945) is a Hollywood comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Peter Godfrey. Barbara Stanwyck plays Elizabeth Lane, the author of a beloved magazine column about farm life — recipes, a devoted fiancé, a baby, the whole picture-perfect package.
It's all fiction. Elizabeth is single, lives in New York, and cannot cook. Her friend Felix provides the recipes. When her publisher (Sydney Greenstreet) decides to send war hero Jefferson Jones to spend Christmas at Elizabeth's Connecticut farm as a publicity stunt, she has days to conjure a farm, a husband, and at least a passable roast. Stanwyck plays Elizabeth as a woman who is very good at lying and only slightly less good at improvising — exactly the right register for this kind of comedy. Directed with a light touch and anchored by a genuinely funny cast, the film has held up well across eight decades. Stream Christmas in Connecticut (1945) online on iFILM.
