I'd never heard of The Lemon Drop Kid before, but I saw it on a list of Christmas comedies, so I thought I'd give it a chance. It wasn't bad. It took a while for me to warm up to Bob Hope's character, but I think that was kind of the point. I don't think the comedy has held up as well as other movies, and I wasn't sold on this being a Christmas movie at first, but it eventually got there. I was also shocked to learn that this was the movie that introduced "Silver Bells" to the world. That's gotta count for something. I liked The Lemon Drop Kid, but it's not going to be a holiday staple for me.
