25 All-Time Favorite Christmas Movies
25 Don’t Miss Christmas Classic Movies
From Thanksgiving to Christmas there will be many Christmas movies and specials on TV (classics like Rudolph, Frosty, Shrek, Charlie Brown and all the favorites). Christmas just wouldn’t be Christmas without our favorite Christmas movies to enjoy.
The fireplaces are starting to crackle. It may have even snowed once or twice were you live. Christmas is in the air. One of the great Christmas traditions is enjoying Christmas movies with your family around the Christmas tree.
This list of Christmas favorites focuses on many classic movies. Most of these movies are 25 years old or older. Only a few are more recent movies. The 1940s and 1950s produced some great classic Christmas movies we can all enjoy today. Christmas movies remind us of our humanity. They show us a life lesson that we can use all year long.
