Holiday Inn.

Does anyone remember "The Gathering"?
 
Starring Ed Asner and Maureen Stapleton. Gruff businessman separated from his family learns he has only months to live. Very emotional and heart warming Christmas story. You cant find a dvd but it can be viewed online via youtube. It is my favorite of all time.

We also like all of the above...Elf, Christmas Vacation, etc...

Some others not yet mentioned are;

"Home Alone" We watched that the other day after not seeing it in years and it was good. Funny seeing the crooks steal valuable VCR's.....

"Scrooged" is also a good one.

A little known one that is truly one of my favorites is "The Fourth Wise Man" starring Martin Sheen. If you can find it, it is truly a treasure.

Another rare one is "The Christmas Gift" starring John Denver.

My wife likes "The Night they Saved Christmas" starring Jaclyn Smith, Art Carney as Santa, and June lockhart as Mrs. Santa. It's about an oil company drilling up by the north pole threatening North Pole City.

"Going My Way" and "The Bells of St. Mary's" are also good. Most folks like "White Christmas" but the earlier film, "Holiday Inn" is my favorite of the two....

It's a Wonderful Life and Christmas Vacation

Another good one we like to watch with the grandkids is "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" (2000) with Jim Carrey. An added bonus is the song by Faith Hill "Where are you Christmas."

Although it's an hour long I don't know if it qualifies it to be called a movie:
Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol

2) A Christmas Story

3) The original 1947 making of Miracle on 34th Street.

YES, that was always a favorite with the little ones.

One we like to watch with the grandkids is THE NORTH POLE EXPRESS.

Great for all ages........a very magical seasonal movie.

I second that!

Home Alone!

White Christmas...every year...it's tradition...we sing along to all the songs and we've memorized the dialogue...I just love Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney...love the dance routines and Danny Kay is hilarious!
And Miracle on 34th Street (only the one w/Natalie Wood)

Teryl1949 12-04-2012 08:11 PM

A Christmas Stiry! We are even the proud owners of " a major award", we had it in the window until we closed on the sale of the house today......sadly, now in storage until next year when it will magically appear in Gilchrist!
