Arthur Christmas is top. Watch it several times over the period and makes me cry every time!

Miracle on 34th Street, the Richard Attenborough one.

Home Alone 2, prefer it to the original.

Little Women, the best Winona Ryder version. Not a Christmas film but always watch over the season.

Home Alone 1 and 2
Muppets Christmas Carol
Snowman
Snowman and Snowdog
Father Christmas

Hetyanni · 07/11/2021 08:13

Miracle on 34th Street is a good shout. I think we will also have a Star Wars marathon at some point.
