A Comprehensive List of the Best Christmas Movies to Enjoy With the Family

The following article, A Comprehensive List of the Best Christmas Movies to Enjoy With the Family, was first published on Flag And Cross.

Here’s a list that can be argued until the end of time. Some people may feel that “Die Hard” is the greatest Christmas movie ever made. Others might say “Elf,” starring Will Ferrell.

Only one thing is for sure, though. Any of the five movies listed below could take the top spot on any given day. It all comes down to personal preference.

Number 2…”National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation”

Rarely has a series’ third installment been the equal of its two predecessors, but such is the case with this threequel involving Clark (Chevy Chase), Ellen (Beverly D’Angelo), Audrey (Juliette Lewis), and Rusty Griswold’s (Johnny Galecki) mishap-besieged family get-together.

And coming in at number 1…”It’s A Wonderful Life”

Few films define Christmas like Frank Capra’s 1946 fantasy starring Jimmy Stewart as George Bailey, who, on the verge of committing suicide, is visited by an angel who shows him the true importance of his life.
