Here's Where You Can Watch White Christmas
There is no denying that "White Christmas" is one of the most influential Christmas movies ever made, and no, we're not talking about the "Black Mirror" episode. This isn't just because of its heartwarming message about finding joy in even the darkest moments, but also because of its technical innovations. After all, it was the first film to ever be released in VistaVision. If that term doesn't sound familiar, it eventually influenced several cinematography innovations, such as 70mm IMAX. To argue that "White Christmas" isn't an essential seasonal watch would, frankly, be ridiculous.
However, we also know that there might be some people out there who genuinely have never seen Michael Curtiz's film starring the likes of Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney before. We wouldn't blame you if you hadn't, but it definitely isn't too late to check it out. Even if you have seen it before, the ever-changing streaming landscape could make it a bit difficult to find online. Thankfully, you've got us to help you figure out where "White Christmas" is currently available to watch, whether you prefer owning a digital copy or streaming it on one of the many services that now exist.
Where to stream and purchase White Christmas
Here in the United States, "White Christmas" is only available on one streaming service. Thankfully, it's one that you and several million people subscribe to in some way or form, and that is Netflix. It is one of the films available on both the Basic with Ads plan and the other ad-free plans, which is neat considering the basic plan doesn't include Netflix's entire library.
However, we also understand that, if you don't already have a Netflix subscription, those pricing plans can sound daunting. Perhaps renting or purchasing "White Christmas" through a digital storefront will be easier for you. Thankfully, these are much cheaper options all the way around. You can either rent the movie on Apple TV for $3.99 or purchase it for only a dollar more. Not only that, but there's only a two-dollar difference between renting it and buying it on Prime Video, Google Play, YouTube, Redbox, and Vudu — on all five platforms, renting "White Christmas" will cost $2.99 while buying it will cost $4.99.
No matter how you watch it, you'll be ringing in the holiday season with one joyous and festive celebration. We genuinely do hope that you find time to either rewatch it or see it for the first time this year.
