Today I dug out my Christmas music and films. It ocurred to me that many people have a favorite Christmas movis so I am wondering what yours is.Mine is the 1951 Allistair Sim version of "A Christmas Carol" (the movie is actually called "Scrooge"). If I may blaspheme, I like the colorized version over the black and white, the only colorized film I care for.
I have the 1938 version of this and do watch it but it's not as dark and a bit too Hollywood for me. I also enjoy "Mickey's Christmas Carol", where Disney cartoon characters play the parts.
I also watch "Miracle on 34th Street" and (of course) "It's a Wonderful Life". I also like to show the ending of "Grand Illusion"
where the two escapees share Christmas with the widow and her daughter.So what's your favorite?
