Gisele MacKenzie: White Christmas in English & French.

Without a doubt, Gisele MacKenzie was among the most charming and gifted of all the wonderful vocalists to come down the entertainment trail. From the Dec. 14, 1957, edition of "The Gisele MacKenzie Show," Gisele performs the Irving Berlin holiday classic, "White Christmas" in French and English. The video begins with a full screen picture of Gisele's then-new RCA Victor Vik label LP release, "Christmas with Gisele,' with its beautiful David B. Hecht cover. The amazingly multi-talented Gisele sings and plays piano with Axel Stordahl and his orchestra. The video continues as Gisele sings her theme, "Merci Beaucoup," and the credits for the show appear, while guest George DeWitt and Gisele's boy dancers, The Curfew Kids, close the show with their hostess, Miss MacKenzie. Production credits at the end are for MLM Productions (Gisele's production company that bore the initials of her Mother) and J&M Productions (Jack Benny's production company that stood for Jack & Mary, who was Mr. Benny's wife).
