I’m going to to continue my single tradition of watching WWII movies. No idea why I started it.

“Patton” “The Enemy Below” and “The Battle of Britain” are my favorites.

Battle Ground. Battle of the bulge. 80 years ago right now we had people fighting in the Ardennes and all over the Pacific. Just saying. I understand the urge. Merry Christmas. 🙏

I recommend this 20 minute short from Warner Brothers in 1945 called "Star in the Night".

It definitely has that Warner Brothers 1940s vibe, the golden age of Warner Brothers. High production values for a short film.

Was sad in “The Enemy Below” where the German Captain lost his Heinie.

Mr Magoo’s Christmas Carol, and a Charlie Brown Christmas, they are both great!

Olaf’s Frozen Adventure is my kid’s favorite, but we probably don’t have a lot of princess here at FR.

I can recommend The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, a Dallas Jenkns film. The ending is very good….

Speaking of Charlie Brown, I'm reminded of Andy Brown, in The Amos and Andy Christmas.

I’m partial to the 1966 special “Dr. Seuss How The Grinch Stole Christmas” myself.

“Trailer for Die Hard”

On our cruise last week, Die Hard was shown on the big screen in the theater. Great movie.
