What films do you like to see over the festive period on the telly?

[Northstander]

Got to be James Bond innit!?

 

[magoo]

The Abi Titmuss one.

 

[cheshunt seagull]

Old sentimental films go best for me with the seasonal feeling of a full stomach and a pleasantly blurry head:
Like:
Mrs Miniver
Genevieve
Miracle on 34st (original version)


Alternatively, blood soaked gangster epics help me to manage the emotions of being cooped up with relatives for 3 days
Goodfellas
Godfather 2
Reservoir Dogs
Not really primetime family viewing though

If it is to be Bond, it must be any Sean Connery or
'On her Majesty's Secret Service'.

 

[Edward Scissorhands]

Miracle on 34th street
Muppet Christmas Carol
It's a wonderful life

 

[Easy 10]

The Grinch (Carey cracks me up)
Scrooged
Elf

 

[johnnyjetlag]

The Great Escape, surely

 

[JJ McClure]

Scrooged

I love that film

Muppet Christmas Carol

and that one

Not checked out all that's on over the festive period this year but have noticed Signs is on (good film) and The American President which I've not seen but is scripted by Aaron Sorkin who I think is great.

 

[Grendel]

Zulu
Indiana Jones
The Great Escape

 

[Gully]

Escape to Victory
The Italian Job
The longest day

 

[Starry]

It's a Wonderful Life

A Charlie Brown Christmas

Miracle on 34th Street (the original one though not the 90s new one)

and Home Alone for the kids, they love that.
