Dolly Parton is 76 years old.
Jimmy Fallon and others are on this one this year that came out today I think.

I love that movie; seen it umpteen times, but never clicked on me till now that it’s a Christmas movie!
Also agree with your selection of Charlie Brown.
Sorry, mangled a quote from Highlander.

I took the week of Christmas off and will lock myself in and watch several of the movies mentioned here!
Haven’t seen home alone in years. Going to make a point this year! Just worried it might give the kid some ideas… ![]()
Is it a Christmas movie?
If you have Netflix I noticed there is a slew of Christmas movies on there now. Many look kind of Hallmarky but to each his own.
Nothing says Christmas more than a terribly-produced 90s film with an exclusively-white cast.
Replace the word Christmas with the word Hollywood and remove ‘90’s’ and you’ve got a universal truism.
Every year my mum watches The Polar Express. Looks like shite to me.
The nightmare before Christmas is pretty decent. As is A muppet Christmas Carol. Scrooge (Alastair Simm) was always on in our house as a lad.
It’s only thirty mins long, but my favourite is A Charlie Brown Christmas. Really brings back childhood memories.
Who Killed Santa: A Murderville Murder Mystery
Murderville is a riotously funny. If you don’t know the concept, they put one actor with no script into a storyline and he/she has to ad lib all parts.
The Polar Express
Watching with kids can be great, but I find it a bit long and dreary.
That’s a great movie, yo.
There is only one
A Christmas Carol, 1951, Alistair Sims as Scrooge,
I don’t know if there’s ONLY one, but that’s certainly the one I’ve watched the most at this time of year.
I once used the final scenes of that in class and may never do so again, because I was close enough to crying that I had trouble talking.
Thanks for recommending this one. I had never heard of it before and watched it over the holiday. I thought Alistair Sims made a very good Scrooge and I really enjoyed recognizing Hermione Baddeley as Mrs. Cratchit from Mary Poppins and some America T.V. I wasn’t crazy about some of the liberties they took by adding made up scenes but overall I liked it. And the ending scene made me really understand the take by @lostinasia.
This doesn’t quite fit in the categories but for an audio version I recommend:
My parents had this on a thick old vinyl record and I still enjoy it every year.
I’ve just got YouTube this year, 0/4

My family was big on watching these 6 classics:
Christmas in Connecticut

White Christmas
Holiday Inn
Miracle on 34th Street (original)

Scrooge (with Albert Finney)
It’s a Wonderful Life
Everyone I know seems to only ever have heard of Miracle on 34th Street and It’s a Wonderful Life and never heard of the others.
To me, these were and are the best.
