It is...drum roll....Jimmy Stewart in It's A Wonderful Life. We have no one like Jimmy any more and the theme of a wonderful life is so poignant. We are all important, without us, the world wouldn't be the same.<br /><br />I also have to say, I love The Nativity Story, I think that's the name? It is a fairly new release about the lives of Joseph and Mary leading up to Jesus birth. They didn't add unnecessary Hollywood anything to it. Right out of the gospel.<br /><br />Tomorrow, I will post my favorite song and a gift in the comments, the java snow code.<br />Merry Christmas.<br />Nancy<br /><a href="http://nrwilliams.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">N.

And I adore Elf. We have a handful of Christmas movies and let the kids vote, but that one always is part of the season run. It's A Wonderful Life is actually my favorite (I adore Jimmy Stewart and I LOVE that trickling... how one life changes so many others thing--it is almost Sci-Fi, only sentimental) but Elf is up there. We have Chistmas Story and Christmas Vacation, too (Had the Grinch on video but no player) but yeah... Elf manages to get all the feel good without all the sap, and that is a hard task.Hart Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17599570189253229318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751167979012161263.post-47373986204943942072010-12-23T03:42:18.484-06:002010-12-23T03:42:18.484-06:00Have a great Christmas. :-)
I think my favorite ...Have a great Christmas. :-) <br /><br />I think my favorite Christmas movie is While You Were Sleeping.<br /><br />Strange, because I tend to deeply despise romantic comedies. <br /><br />Maybe it's because the characters remind me of my own family at Christmas.Misha Gerrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06364173848456424521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751167979012161263.post-8848702978124124912010-12-23T03:28:52.122-06:002010-12-23T03:28:52.122-06:00Oh, we watched Elf this year in class!

The music. The amusement. The weirdness. I just approve. But then, I also have a tendency to curl up with Gilmore Girls or something else equally brain-candy esque during the holidays. -shrugs- It works.Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06544115879736949909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751167979012161263.post-88815166276651524652010-12-22T19:10:11.595-06:002010-12-22T19:10:11.595-06:00Love Christmas Vacation!

I own it, but I also will watch it on TV if I happen to catch it on. I love watching A Christmas Story on Christmas day (since it's on 24 hrs, why not?) I also have to get White Christmas in, and Mikhail Baryshnikov's Nutcracker (I think it's from like, the 70's...but I remember watching it when I was really little when they used to play it on tv..brings back good memories ;) <br /><br />Okay so I have to admit it...Elf is not my favorite. It's got some great funny stuff scattered throughout...like if you bring up a few funny bits from it, I'll be like, "oh yeah that was hilarious" but it's kinda like those SNL skits they make into movies- it's hilarious for a few minutes at a time, but not for 2 hours straight. Again, still has some really funny bits. Sorry I'm late on this! I haven't been on much today.Abby Minardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11963640263845561309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751167979012161263.post-57590872062760589142010-12-22T18:37:05.608-06:002010-12-22T18:37:05.608-06:00Sorry about the delete.

How about FAMILY MAN (Nicholas Cage and Tea Leoni) and THE HOLIDAY (with Jude Law, Jack Black, Cameron Diaz, and Kate Winslet)?? Those are great ones too. ;o) I admit I've never seen "It's a Wonderful Life." Sounds kinda boring.
