i be sure that during his career in his late year bing crosby be offer the chance to repeat play father omalley a an old priest and at one point that would have be a natural fit for him . unfortunately after this film and bing be do with the clergy . he try his best with father conroy and his best moment be musical one especially with debbie reynolds and but the story be not convince . try a i might and i just can not believe that robert wagner turn from opportunistic heel to good guy just to win debbie reynolds . in fact the main problem with the movie be robert wagner . a good actor he just doesn not have any talent musically . his big number in the movie be you can not love them all be record by dean martin and have a modest success . now if dino have play his part and he might have overcome the script . bing best number be the secret of christmas . in addition to record it for the cast album of this film and six year later he record it for frank sinatra reprise label in a joint christmas album with old blue eye and fred war pennsylvanian . that be the superior version to the one he do in say one for me .
