We had a very busy weekend. Parades were marched in and parties were attended, but somehow on Saturday afternoon I found myself (blissfully) home alone. I brewed up a cup of tea, got out my current embroidery project (from Embroidery Companion: Classic Designs for Modern Living
Here's my list of favorite classic holiday movies:
White Christmas: I tear up every time the General walks into the ballroom and everyone stands up and claps for him.
Christmas in Connecticut: I watched this one on Saturday. I was thinking it could be redone today, only Barbara Stanwyck's character could be blogger instead of a columnist.
Meet Me in St. Louis: Another tear jerker. Who doesn't cry when Judy Garland sings Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas?
Miracle on 34th Street: In it's original black and white please. No colorization version for me.
It's a Wonderful Life
Holiday Inn
I'm always looking for more to add to my list. What is your favorite classic holiday movie?
Hi Laura,
I love all of the movies on your list
I think I'd add all of the Rankin-Bass animated classics to the list, too. Frosty the Snowman, A Miser Brother's Christmas, Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, and Santa Claus is Coming to Town. the list wouldn't be complete without A Charlie Brown Christmas and the original animated version of How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
Hope you and your family are have a wonderful Christmas Season.
We LOVE LOVE LOVE …The Snowman
Kim, I never saw The Snowman. I’m going to look for it! I love discovering new (to me) holiday movies!
We like your list, too, but our all time family favorite is the musical "Scrouge" with Albert Finney. By the end of it we are so uplifted we are dancing around the house singing "I Like Life" and smiling. We are a very musical family. Merry Christmas to all. Nancy
We love musicals at our house too Nancy! I’ll have to check-out that version of Scrouge. I don’t think I have seen it before.
