Christmas Movies you must watch every year!

I thought I would compile a list of my favourite Christmas movies and reasons why! I find this really interesting because everyone always has different answers to this. Please let me know if you have any particular recommendations for me!

1. Elf

This is the most classic Christmas film ever. I’ve met a couple of people who don’t like this film which always shocks me, because it’s so damn hilarious?! It never fails to make me laugh and for that reason, it makes the top of my list.

2. Polar Express

This one I love for nostalgic reasons. I used to watch it so much as a kid because I absolutely loved the music (I even owned the CD) and it’s just such a loving film about the importance of friendship. I watched it a couple of days ago and it’s crazy to think how far animated films have come since then, and it also got me totally emotional thinking about the fact that my childhood is long gone and over now. But it’s nice to have a film to bring me back to those moments and sing those songs like I’m a child again. I forgot how much I love this movie!

3. Home Alone

Again, this film is a classic. I’ve watched it countless number of times and despite the spider scene still freaking me the hell out, I could never get bored of this film.

4. Love Actually

I haven’t seen this film for many years but I watched it again this year and I forgot how good it is. It’s so interesting how all the story-lines interlink and there are so many this-is-so-sweet-I-want-to-cry moments. If all else fails and this doesn’t sound all that great to you, watch it for Mr Bean. It’s as good a reason as any.

What Christmas movies do you watch every year? Do you agree with my list or would you make some changes?
