I remember some film about Germans and Americans meeting for Christmas in a home during WW2. I’ve always liked that one

A Christmas Story starring Darren McGavin. My personal favorite.

Somewhat off topic...but I remember when a network used to show The Little Drummer Boy among the Christmas specials.

Guess it got canned for being too religious.

A Charlie Brown Christmas is the best by a long shot.

Personally, I’ve always found all the Rankin-Bass Christmas specials to be cheesy. I admit the stop motion animation is cool and Year Without Santa Claus has made me cry, but they are still cheesy.

#1- Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
#2- Charlie Brown Christmas
#3-Frosty the Snow Man.

We never miss those three. They are a family tradition :).

Agreed! We were planning on running it for the last of our religious ed classes, before the Christmas break, but we got snowed out.

Merry Christmas to you and yours!
