One of the best things that you can do during the Christmas holidays is to sit around a TV with your family and friends and to watch some classic Christmas movies. Old and new movies are brought together in this list which I hope will help you select the perfect movie for you.
5. How the Grinch stole Christmas the 1966 version. This is a spectacular animation full of sensibility and style meant to show both the evil and the good side of humans. Based on the wonderful book by Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch stole Christmas is a story about the true meaning of Christmas. It is, in my opinion, one of the best holiday cartoons ever made, so give it a try!
4. Miracle of 34th street. There are two versions of this movie and both are good, but I personally prefer the 1947 version directed by George Seaton. It is the story of a good old man who is institutionalized after claiming he is Santa Claus. This movie is a combination of humor and drama, both goofy and addressing some serious topic like childhood, greed, and sanity.
3. Die hard. It may be surprising to see Die Hard in a list of Christmas movies, but it is some action and testosterone is refreshing after all those cheesy movies. Nothing better than seeing Bruce Willis shooting some bad guys for Christmas! It’s a movie packed with action and it is a lot of fun for the whole family. So if, you are in for something different this Christmas, go for Die Hard! You won’t regret it!
2. Home Alone. This is already a classic Christmas movie, but I can’t get enough of it. It is pure comedy genius and highly enjoyable for the whole family. Macaulay Culkin does a great job playing Kevin, a witty boy that has to deal with two goofy robbers and he will make you cheer for the main character. Home Alone is a perfect Christmas movie for the whole family!
1. A Christmas Carol, the 1984 version. This is another Christmas classic that you can’t miss this holiday season. Based on the famous novella by Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol is a movie meant to teach us an important lesson about the true meaning of Christmas. It is a movie for the whole family and a real treat to watch on Christmas Eve.
