Two bickering shop assistants (working at a gift shop in Budapest) correspond via anonymous romantic letters, in this timeless Christmas romance.
The two employees are the great James Stewart as Alfred Kralik and (the equally great) Margaret Sullavan as Klara Novak. The actors have amazing chemistry!
This movie is full of wonderful characters like Mr. Matuschek (a brilliant Frank Morgan) who begins to suspect his wife is having an affair. Matuschek wrongly suspects Alfred (Stewart) as being the mystery man!
William Tracy is memorable as Pepi Katona (a precocious delivery boy), while other employees include: Felix Bressart as Pirovitch (a kindly family man), Joseph Schildkraut as Ferencz Vadas (a two-faced womanizer), Sara Haden as clerk Flora Kaczek and Inez Courtney as saleswoman, Ilona Novotny.
A captivating story with hilarious dialogue and winning performances. A true festive classic. Don't miss it!
