Happy holidays folks! 
As we approach the big day, I’m wondering what your favorite holiday movies are. 
We know the normal shouts – Home Alone 
, Elf 
, The Grinch 
, It’s a Wonderful Life 
… anyone got anything niche or unusual? Die Hard – we get it! Lord of the Rings 
and Harry Potter 
– just because it plays at Christmas doesn’t make it a Christmas film! The hottest take I’ve heard this festive season is Eyes Wide Shut… it’s littered with Christmas trees, but it’s got to be the least festive movie I’ve ever seen. Hit me with your unusual holiday movies!
This year will be my second visit to The Holdovers 
which I just did a script analysis of. If you’ve seen it, check out why I think it’s a true contemporary Christmas classic!
See you in the New Year!
