Of course there is the tree decorations and biscuits to bake. However, a tried and true classic from an endless list of vacation films is true. You can choose between family-friendly, kitschy but festive rom-coms, or even think of Christmas horror movies. But with the pandemic shattering Christmas plans for this year, watching movies will certainly bring more convenience than usual.

We bring you some of our favorite festive classes that are sure to lighten your mood:

Yes, for 120 of the 130 minutes in total in this film, life couldn’t be so wonderful. It’s a story of a bank teller who lost his luck and was driven to the brink of suicide before an angel trainee shows up to make him think. This Frank Capra film from 1946 is deeply emotionally stressful, but also warm-hearted, life-affirming, timeless, funny and a well-deserved classic. The film received six Academy Award nominations.

Three decades have passed since the most watched Christmas movie generated a thunderous response. So many people still enjoy watching 8-year-old Kevin McCallister make his way and turn down a break-in home by adorably outsmarting the Wet Bandits. Every time you watch this classic you’ll learn some of the most inventive, surprisingly violent self-defense tactics.

One of the best explanations for Charles Dickens’ festive allegory came with the kind permission of a group of wise puppets. Michael Caine when Ebenezer Scrooge promised to act as if he were working with the Royal Shakespeare Company, or any antics around him that supported his tactics. If you want to introduce someone to a classic Christmas story, start with a musical featuring the legendary Muppets, who play Dickens’ characters.

You can think of this movie as a heartwarming gem, as it turned out to be a consistent Christmas favorite even decades after its release. The 1947 American Christmas comedy film directed by George Seaton is based on a story by Valentine Davies. The story of the film rotates between Thanksgiving and Christmas Day, and focuses on the impact of a Santa Claus professing himself to the real Santa. Miracle on 34th Street starring Maureen O’Hara, John Payne, Natalie Wood and Edmund Gwenn won three Oscar awards and was kept by the Academy Film Archive in 2009.

It would be a Christmas travesty not to include this on the list. The American fantasy comedy drama film directed by Ron Howard was set with Jim Carrey taking the lead. The Grinch has a full-length live-action film featuring this whimsical Christmas story from Dr.. . Seuss’ book of the same name from 1957. It won the Oscar for Best Makeup and received nominations for Best Art Direction and Best Costume Design.

It’s a wonderful life, George Bailey, James Stewart, Christmas Day, Frank Capra
