Interestingly enough, The Odessa File. This song, written by Andrew Lloyd Webber, was featured in the film.

Perry Como -- Christmas Dream

Re: Favourite christmas movie

couldn't decide between Wizard of Oz or Scrooge with Patrick Stewart, saw the Polar Express for the first time last boxing day and got strangely dragged into it.

Re: Favourite christmas movie

I always try to watch The box of delights in the 2 weeks up to christmas...if i remember correctly when it was first shown it spanned the week before christmas with the final episode which was set on christmas eve actually broadcasting on christmas eve, this in itself added to the sentiment.

I also like to watch the children of green knowe which is set around the xmas school holidays.

Film wise in blockbuster way would have to include Gremlins,Home Alone,Oliver! and finally Scrooge (the 70's musical version - maybe not the best but its close)

Re: Favourite christmas movie

I love Trading Places. Even though it's not strictly a Christmas film the christmas time setting just makes it feel great to watch. I love National Lampoons Christmas Vacation too. The Grinch is also a favourite!

Re: Favourite christmas movie

Has to be Trading Places. I watch it every other Xmas. It's a classic film, very funny, and has lots of xmas stuff going on.

Re: Favourite christmas movie

This is not a movie but for me it has to be The Box Of Delights, it was an BBC 80's childrens fantasy i loved then and still love now at my age(38!) it is broken down in to episodes but i normally sit and watch the whole lot on christmas eve....magic!

Re: Favourite christmas movie

All of the versions of A Christmas Carol, including the more recent "takes" on the storyline. Best for me is the one with Alastair Sim.
