What are your most favorite Christmas movies, the ones that if you don't get to see them, you don't think it is Christmas.

I have several,

Christmas in Conneticut with Barbara Stanwick

The Christmas without Snow with Michael Learned (mother from the Waltons)

and of course the ultimate favorite Christmas movie White Christmas with Bing.

    "The Christmas Story" is my all-time favorite Christmas comedy. I do love "It's a Wonderful Life" and "Miracle on 34th Street" - both always make me cry...

    I've never seen "White Christmas" believe it or not. Is that un-American?!?

    My all time favorite is A Christmas Carol with George C. Scott. Not the first one made in the 30's, not the latest one made with the new guy from Star Trek, but good ol' George. Love it every time!!!!!

    Does nobody like watching Christmas movies while putting up the tree?

    Felicia, I have watched 'The Christmas Story' but when they play it back to back for 24 hours, I go crazy. It's a wonderful life and Miracle on 34th street also rank up there in my favorites.

    Laura, I like all versions of A Christmas Carol.

    Can you tell, I love Christmas movies.

    It's A Wonderful Life.  We watched it every year and my kids got sick of it!  It's so heartwarming.  Two years ago we watched Christmas Vacation (totally the other end of the spectrum) and it was so much fun...something we could all enjoy.  I also love Miracle On 34th Street.

    My 2 favorite Christmas movies are "A Christmas Story"  and "A Christmas Carol."  Big on my list though is Miracle on 34th Street and The Bells of St. Mary (reminds me of Christmas.)

    Well, I'm absolutely embarrassed to say I LOVE the Griswold's Family Christmas.
