Irving Berlin's classic White Christmas celebrates its 70th anniversary today - originally premiering on October 14, 1954. Paramount is celebrating the occasion with a 4K UHD Blu-ray on November 5.

Irving Berlin's White Christmas is the first film in Paramount's pioneering VistaVision format that paved the way for IMAX and has been "lovingly restored from the original VistaVision negative and looks more vibrant than ever for home viewing in 4K Ultra HD. This limited release includes the film on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc™, a second Blu-ray Disc™ with the film, including a sing-along option, as well as extensive legacy bonus content, and access to a Digital copy of the film, packaged in a collectible slipcover based on the original theatrical poster."

Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye star as war veterans who become one of the hottest acts in show business. When they encounter a sister act (Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen), they’re off to Vermont for a holiday celebration unlike any other. Irving Berlin’s WHITE CHRISTMAS was directed by Michael Curtiz (Casablanca) and features a host of memorable songs including “Snow”, “Sisters”, “The Old Man,” “The Best Things Happen While You’re Dancing,” and, of course, the immortal classic “White Christmas.”
