Yes, it's a classic, but mostly it's an excuse to film staged night-club and Broadway dance numbers. Which is fine, but not exactly a Christmas thing, except for the title number.
But boy can Danny Kaye dance! ( )

The sad excuse for a script exists purely to hang musical numbers on, and the musical numbers aren't that great.
