Special features: Introduction [by Robert Osborne of Turner Classic Movies] (2 min.) ; theatrical trailer (2 min.).
Bing Crosby, Barry Fitzgerald, Frank McHugh, James Brown, Gene Lockhart, Jean Heather, Porter Hall, Fortunio Bonanova, Eily Malyon, [the] Robert Mitchell Boychoir, Risë Stevens.
Father O'Malley is the new priest at the Church of St. Dominic in a working-class New York City neighborhood. He fails to make a good first impression with crusty old Father Fitzgibbon, who doesn't approve of O'Malley's golf playing, baseball game attending, or fishing. But O'Malley starts spiffing up the church and its neighborhood: dealing with the church mortgage, which is in arrears, and straightening out the street gangs by getting the boys to help him start a choir. Romantic matches are made; neighborhood busybodies are appeased. Many songs are joyfully sung, and O'Malley even arranges a big surprise for Fitzgibbon, who's homesick for Ireland.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
An excuse for Bing to sing submitted by pk on July 22, 2023, 3:21pm This isn’t so much a movie as a vehicle for Bing Crosby to sing. The songs can be fun but, as with many of these types of movies, the plot is thin, predictable, and not very worth the runtime. If you just want to hear the songs, you may enjoy this.
