My wife asked me what my favorite Christmas movie is. I answered Die Hard. She was not pleased. What is yours?

My favorite is the original Miracle on 34th Street

A Christmas Story was a disappointment because I was familiar with the source (In God We Trust-All Others Pay Cash by Jean Shepherd), a compilation in book form of short stories that were originally published in Playboy magazine. The book is so much better, and not as cloyingly sweet as the movie.

And the book itself was a Christmas present to me, many years ago.

My favorite line from the book (incomplete in the movie), was when Ralphie was sitting on Santa’s lap...

“Santa’s warm, moist breath poured down over me as though from some cosmic steam radiator. Santa smoked Camels, like my Uncle Charles”.

I, too, liked the stories a lot, which is why I’ll never watch the movie. Jean Shepherd was great.

Battle of the Bulge. At least that’s what it’s about.

We’re No Angels. Not the one with Sean Penn, this is the film with Humphrey Bogart, Aldo Ray, and Peter Ustinov as prisoners escaping Devil’s Island.

I second “Midnight Clear”.....a reminder of the humanity that’s found even in the most horrid situations (Battle of the Bulge).

Second fav would be “Bad Santa”.....lewd, sick, hilarious but believe it or not, with a great, great message!!

For people who grew up in dysfunctional families, it’s perfect.

‘We’re No Angels’ is another Christmas movie I don’t get to see as much as I’d like. Yes, it is excellent. I’m starting to recall a song I love from that movie.
