Best Christmas Movies

        



One of the best ways to truly immerse yourself in the Christmas spirit is to sit back and enjoy a movie with a mug of hot chocolate and marshmallows.

After much thought, I pulled together this short list of movies that everyone should watch this Christmas.



1. Miracle on 34th Street
  Without a doubt, this movie has been my favourite Christmas movie for years. Starring Richard Attenborough as Santa Clause, the plot centers on a young girl who has doubts about the miracle of Santa. However, this all begins to change when she meets a certain jolly man himself, who shows her the true meaning of Christmas and the gift of belief.

2. The Santa Clause
Christmas never passes without this movie, it's a long lasting tradition. It never fails to amuse me and I'm pretty sure I can quote the entire movie at this stage! Tim Allen stars as the man who accidentally kills Santa on Christmas Eve. Trying on the suit for size he finds himself magically recruited as the new Clause.

3. The Holiday
  I only discovered this movie a few years ago and I have watched it every year since. This movie must be watched with (1) your mam or close friend (2) a tin of sweets (3) a mug of hot chocolate. This movie features many much loved actors including; Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law and Jack Black. Two woman in an attempt to escape their troubled love life swap home's for the holidays. In doing so they both stumble across love.

4. Home Alone
  A true Christmas classic this movie has been watched by children the world over. I do believe I once watched this on TV in July! A bit early some may say, but sometimes you just need a little Christmas. Malcaulay Culkin plays the role of an 8 year old boy who is accidentally left behind while his family fly to France for Christmas. At first he takes advantage of this wondrous opportunity, but when he must defend his home against idiotic buglars he soon realises the importance of family.
