Good morning, you wonderful souls! The holiday season is upon us, and I’ve already started enjoying the festive spirit by watching Christmas movies. And last night, I watched the film It’s A Wonderful Life (1946)—a heartwarming classic that reminds me of the true meaning of the holidays. It’s a beautiful mix of hope, redemption, and community, with a touch of Christmas magic. If you haven’t seen it yet, it’s a must-watch! If you haven’t seen it, it’s definitely worth a watch.

I watched this 60 years ago but must watch again. I want my wife to watch midnight cowboy as she has never seen it.
Merry Christmas

I love When Harry met Sally too, but my all time favourite Christmas movies are The Ref, The Christmas Chronicles and The Christmas Chronicles 2. I did hear there maybe a third movie as well but as yet there hasn't been anymore mentioned about it, but I will continue to enjoy the first two. I really enjoy Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn working together.

When Harry Met Sally is such a classic. Billy Crystal's line to Meg Ryan at the end of the movie really stood out to me. Hoping my partner can say this to me one day

I was very surprised at just how much I enjoyed seeing Judy Garland in The Wizard of Oz again! But for a Christmas movie, Home Alone is the one for me.
Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas

l tried to get that beautiful movie on Utube last night but it wasn't available. l love James Stewart in ''lt's a Wonderful Life'' just shows you should never take people or things for granted. My dad loved ''Bells of St Mary's''so many good movies.

Apart from all of the aforementioned , there's the different versions of the classic A Christmas Carol. Many people also like Die Hard as a Christmas movie. A new release on Netflix is Carry On . It's centred in L A X airport. It takes a little while to get into the main story. If you like Die Hard, this is of a similar ilk.

CRACKERS, best Australian Christmas mover ever!! Watch it every year.

I Love Santa Clause with Tim Allen. Didn't get into the others but loved that one. To those who celebrate Christmas, have a Merry Christmas, to those who don't enjoy the holidays and everybody have a safe new Year.
