Those icicles have been known to kill people.

This is the only time of the year that you might catch me watching the Lifetime and Hallmark channels. Not because the movie are good, but because for some reason I am sucked in to their Christmas lineup. I know they are really cheesy, but i have always been forgiving when it comes to Christmas. The Following are my favorite Christmas movies. None here are cheesy (at least to me), and all are extremely re-watchable. Especially number one! So without further hubbub, I give you my top five favorite Christmas movies.



5. White Christmas (1954)

This is a horrible movie to watch with me. I promise you that i can recite 95 percent of this movie. Seriously, and I do. My Grandmother introduced me to this one when I was very young and I may have seen it more than any other film (i used to watch it in the summer). Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney & Vera-Ellen are the perfect cast to dance and sing their way through this classic. directed by Michael Curtiz (Casablanca), all songs
written by Irving Berlin, and the first film to be shot in Vistavision = Classic!

Here is a little scene to enjoy!



4. Miracle On 34th Street (1947)

Although the 1994 remake is charming, it lacks the magic of the original. With Edmund Gwenn as what may be the greatest Santa in movie history, Miracle's strength lays in it's cast. The beautiful Maureen O'Hara and the soft and sweet Natalie Wood. It's very inspirational and still holds up today.

Check out one of the strangest trailers in movie history here.

Stay tuned for more of the countdown...
