How do you spend your Christmas break? Ice skating? Carolling? Or curled up in a blanket watching Christmas movies like a sentient toad?
If, like us, it’s the amphibious life for you and you plan on engaging in a festive film marathon, you’re in luck. We’ve re-watched and reviewed some Christmas classics with points for fuzzy feelings and festive features. With more platforms than ever before, such as Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Disney+, we’re spoilt for choice when it comes to movies bringing us Yuletide excellence.
From newer feel-good classics such as Emma Roberts’ Holidate to Lindsay Lohan’s Falling for Christmas to sentimental festive favourites like The Holiday, Elf, Home Alone and Miracle On 34th Street to the more rogue choices (A Nightmare Before Christmas, Die Hard), plus 2019’s star-studded Little Women – an adaptation of the much-loved Louisa May Alcott coming-of-age novel – here are the 43 best Christmas movies that we believe are the greatest festive watches of all time. 2023 has even brought us a body swap festive comedy and a romcom from Gossip Girl‘s Leighton Meester, what more could want?
What better to have on in the background while you frantically search last minute for some of the best Christmas gifts for her, eh?
