What are your must see holiday movies?

White Christmas
Sound of Music
Polar Express
Little Women
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
A Christmas Carol
The Nativity

I have two that I must see every year.

1. White Christmas
2. A Christmas Story...the marathon. It drives my husband and parents crazy but I can seriously watch it over and over again.

ELF, elf is the greatest Christmas movie EVER!!! I also enjoy The Santa Clause and A charlie Brown Christmas.

National lampoons christmas vacation

OMG so many:

How The Grinch Stole Christmas (original cartoon, not the Jim Carey movie!)
Charlie Brown Christmas
A Christmas Story
A Muppet Christmas
A Christmas Carol
Mickeys Christmas Carol (if I can find it, they rarely play it anymore and I don't have a copy myself, but its my favorite version of the story)
National Lampoon's Christmas

I have been watching all the cheesy Lifetime Christmas movies too this year lol! And I hope to catch some of the better Halmark Christmas movies, like November Christmas.

So many favorites...

Holiday Inn (the movie that the song White Christmas was actually written for... the movie White Christmas came later)
White Christmas
The Bells of St. Mary's
It's a Wonderful Life
Muppet Christmas Carol
Charlie Brown Christmas
A Christmas Story


Edit: For anyone out there who loves A Christmas Story and is looking for a good book to read- it's based on a small part of the book "In God We Trust- All Others Pay Cash" by Jean Shepherd. Hilarious book- he's written others too.

The Little Drummer Boy (talk about hard to find these days!)
Rudolph, Frosty, Santa Claus is Coming to Town (the old cartoons)
A Christmas Carol
How the Grinch Stole Christmas (again, the cartoon)

I'm sure there's more, I really just love all the old Christmas cartoons...brings me back to my childhood I guess

I forgot about Scrooged with Bill Murry...great movie!
