Watched any holiday movies yet? Which?
With one major holiday past us, I was wondering: What holiday movie do you tend to watch first, when the season starts?
Since there aren’t many Thanksgiving movies, I spent Thansksgiving morning watching Miracle on 34th Street (the original, of course) - a Christmas movie to be sure, but the film does start out with the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, so that seems like the best one to pop in first.
What about you? What holiday movie kicks off the season for you? If there is no traditional starter, how about this: What holiday movie do you see more than once in a single season? That answer for me is probably A Christmas Story, just because that filmed-in-Ohio staple, which turns 25 this year, has become as ubiquitous as It’s a Wonderful Life once was.
Here again is the TV holiday movie schedule and my roundup of current movies in theaters and on DVD. Tell me what, if anything, you’ve seen so far.
PS: Since the blog picture shows Charlie Brown and Linus, and since I aim to be all-inclusive, go ahead and name some TV shows if you feel so inclined. For this lifelong Peanuts fan, A Charlie Brown Christmas is essential viewing.
