Two of the films that I'll watch again this season as they will be inevitably be shown are The Great Escape and The Italian Job (the proper 1969 original not the 2003 remake).

So let the raucous sleigh bells jingle,
Hail our dear old friend kris kringle,
Driving his reindeer across the sky.
Don't stand underneath when they fly by.
Love actually, The Holiday, Curly Sue, You've got mail, Charlie and the chocolate factory, Snow day, Die hard....those are the one ones that immediately came to my head![]()

When it seems the magic slipped away...
We find it all again on Christmas Day.

Bernard and The Genie for me. It doesn't come on telly but it SHOULD. I watched it every single Christmas growing up and it makes me feel sooo Christmassy.
This one occasionally gets shown, and I watch it every time I can. This was one of the first films I saw and the sight of the Dalek rising out of the Thames had a lasting effect on me...

I have the grandaddy of them all: It's A Wonderful Life. The only thing "Christmassy" is the fact that they are standing next to a Christmas tree at the end. The movie itself has nothing to do with the holiday. It's a reflection on life, and how we impact those around us. I think the reason it has become a Christmas classic is because it gives us a sense of warmth and joy that we associate with the holiday season in general.
I love Outdoor Christmas Lights!!
