Holiday Movies

Are you like me and watch the same Christmas movies every year? There's just something about Christmas that makes me want to snuggle up on the coach and watch a movie. For me, it's not the holiday season without seeing a few favorites:

You've Got Mail: Love this movie even through it's not really a Christmas movie.

Sound of Music: Yes I'm planning to watch the new one, probably tonight. I hope it's good, but I'm not sure how I feel about a remake as I love the original. There are just some things that can't be done again.


White Christmas: I've loved this movie since I was a kid. I sometimes watch it in July...

Love Actually:  I can't believe it's been out for 10 years. The perfect movie.

Others: Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Die Hard are all welcome.

I've also been watching some movies on the Hallmark Channel. I enjoyed Farewell Mr. Kringle and loved Fir Crazy.

What about you? Are you a holiday movie watcher?

Ten Things: Holiday Movies


Just like Holiday books, I'm a sucker for Holiday movies and these I tend to watch at least once a year. Sometimes I watch them during the summer too! Most of them aren't your typical holiday movies.

White Christmas: A family holiday tradition movie. I Love all the dancing and the songs. I love the connection between the sisters and the youngest one's meddling.



You've Got Mail: I know this isn't technically a holiday movie, but it feels like it is to me. It's one of my favorite RoComs - funny, sweet, and charming.

Love Actually - adore this movie! I can't even pick a favorite character or scene because they're all awesome. Although I lent this out to someone and it's been lost. Hoping that Santa brings me another copy for Christmas. Even my husband loves this one!

Santa Claus: I really enjoyed this movie and try to catch it when it comes on each year. It's funny and full of magic.

Die Hard: One of my favorite action movies - which takes place at an office Christmas party. Great action and funny lines.

Little Women: One of my favorite childhood movies - still haven't gotten over the fact that Louisa May Alcott (Jo March) never married in real life. I love the beginning scenes dealing with Christmas and the snow.

When Harry Met Sally: I love this movie - it's just hilarious. And perfect for this time of year as it ends on New Year's Eve.

Bourne Trilogy: Love watching these movies - mostly in a row. There's nothing in these movies to connect with Christmas, but I still watch them.

Chronicles of Narnia: Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe: I really love this movie - especially Lucy and Mr. Tumnus's scene together.

Bridget Jones: For the reindeer jumper alone!

What are some of your favorite holiday movies or movie traditions?
