Great Christmas Movies to Share Each Year

The holidays are just around the corner. Just think, the hustle and hassle of Christmas shopping, traffic, crowded stores, and all the stressful things that tend to bring out the worst in people are not far away. The holidays are special, but sometimes it can be overwhelming to try to accomplish everything we feel is important to make the season perfect for family and friends.
All the more reason to choose a great holiday movie, pop some popcorn, make some hot chocolate and share a relaxing evening with someone we love. You can go shopping tomorrow! 

I love classic movies, and during Christmas some of the great notable classics that come to mind are "It's a Wonderful Life," with James Stewart, and "Miracle on 34th street," which also comes in more than one version, since it has been remade twice since the original 1947 version with Natalie Wood. But it's nice to see new movies about Christmas released too. You can find a list of classic and modern favorites at http://eclecticesoterica.com/christmas_movie.html . Be sure to check it out to find your favorite, and discover new favorites as well! 

There are so many wonderful holiday-theme movies to choose from, it is impossible to list very many, for the sake of time. I have three favorites I love to watch every year, and each time I see them, it takes me back to the memories of watching them as a child. You can make a favorite movie as much of a holiday tradition as turkey, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pie. And, it's something your family will look forward to each and every year.
