When you think of Christmas in August you think of the warm glow from the lights of the Christmas Tree, maybe a crackling fireplace, and of course snuggling under a blanket watching those wonderful musical Christmas specials.  You come across a movie called Christmas Holiday with Gene Kelly and Deanna Durbin you think to yourself "oh this should be heartwarming full of charm and singing." But not this time instead you get a heartwarming Film-Noir.
