A Christmas Story. I remember going some theater in Avon Lake as a kid to watch it for the first time back in the early 80s.

A Christmas Story is my favorite as well. I think it just has great humour and takes you back to when you were a kid.

The Snowman or Jungle Book or one of the Star Wars movies.

I'm using a lose definition of Christmas though (as in a movie that is traditionally played around Christmas time).

The Thin Man, though it's more a movie set at Christmas than about Christmas.

Reporter: Say listen, is he working on a case?
Nora Charles: Yes, he is.
Reporter: What case?
Nora Charles: A case of scotch. Pitch in and help him.

The original 'How The Grinch Stole Christmas', narrated by Boris Karloff. Absolute genius.

I also really enjoyed 'Elf', despite not being overly fond of Will Farrell.

'Love, Actually' also gets a vote...the scene where Emma Thompson opens the CD and realizes the necklace she found went to the other woman, and she goes into her room and sorts herself out and then carries on with the day's festivities like nothing is the matter makes me cry every time. Why she didn't get an Oscar for that scene alone I will never understand.
