Title: Favorite "Classic" Holiday Movie
Post by: Geekyfanboy on November 23, 2007, 09:18:54 AM
Now that Thanksgiving is over and we start to gear up for the Holiday season I was wondering what everyones favorite "Classic" Christmas/Holiday Movie was. Let's say classic is pre 1970. I'm going to create another thread for Favorite "modern" Christmas/Holiday movie also.

I think my favorite classic movies that I have to watch every year would be.

White Christmas
It's a Wonderful Life
Miracle on 34th Street
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
How the Grinch Stole Christmas (1966)
Frosty the Snowman
A Christmas Carol (1951)

I like Frosty the Snowman, Charlie Browns Christmas and the 1951 Christmas Carol with Alastair Sim.

It's a Wonderful Life and the various Rankin-Bass cartoons are my favorites.

The different Christmas Carol productions are also fun.  I'm partial to the 1970 Albert Finney musical version.
