I just watched a Storm for Christmas on Netflix and really enjoyed It, a bit different and is Norwegian, so sub titles or dubbing is required.

Not that anyone asked for my opinion but a couple of suggestions to make this place even better…..(and I sincerely love this place).
1. Add a care or heart emoji. The ”Like” button…..smiling guy with eye hearts, surprised guy and laughing guy are not appropriate for posts where people are sharing something sad or troubling.
2. Add a “snooze this member” feature. I have some people blocked and I’m good with it, but there are a few that I’d like to be able to snooze for 20-30 days at a time, then check back in on to see if they still annoy me.
lol

Thank-you both, I'll check those out! Don't mind subtitles at all so that's fine.
A heart/care response option is a great idea.

I watched White Christmas with my mom when she was in the rehab center last year. I'm not sure I'll be able to watch it again anytime soon.

I like to watch Christmas episodes of old shows. Adam 12, MASH, Little House, pretty much a lot of shows from the 70s to the 90s

I remember growing up that the airing of the “Christmas Episode” of every show meant it would be on hiatus until January.
The Bells of St. Mary's {1945}, starring Bing Crosby and Ingrid Bergman. A low-key charmer that will put you and yours in the holiday spirit forthwith.
Yes, you've seen them countless times, but how about It's a Wonderful Life (1946) and A Christmas Story (1983), Home Alone (1990) or Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987)?
Rob Reiner's When Harry Met Sally (1989),
Also,
I realize that Australia is not the United States, but relative to TV stuff, you might find these on Youtube: A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965), The Andy Griffith Show, "The Christmas Story" (1960); "Happy Days," "Guess Who's Coming to Christmas?" (1974). Frasier: "Frasier Grinch," "Merry Christmas, Mrs. Moskowitz."
If you want sentiment and 'tude,
Bonne chance, que Dieu vous bénisse, Joyeux Noël,

I love the original Miracle on 34th Street and A Christmas Carol (Alistair Sim - look for the camera man in the mirror - I watched it dozens of times before I noticed).
One Magic Christmas with Mary Steenburgen is another favourite.
My favourite Christmas episode ever is the Vicar of Dibley - there are a couple but both are good, the one with the Brussels Sprouts is the best.

Die Hard! jk. I have seen some of the suggested movies, and with the exception of Christmas Carol and Wonderful Life, not really a fan. Of course, I have only seen chunks of the others, except for Christmas Story, which does very little for me. I do enjoy a good Christmas tv show once in a while. It is too bad Star Trek could not do a Christmas episode, but sadly it just did not fit in Roddenberry's world view at all.

I doubt many consider it a Christmas movie, per se, but I do and have always loved watching The Family Man with nic cage over the holiday season
Family, friends & I have watched "A Christmas Story" so many times we can recite entire passages of dialogue. We started when my sister's children were small, we'd have a viewing party at someone's house. The kids would play outside while the grown ups watched the movie. It was a particular favorite of Mom's because she was a small child during the early 1940s when the movie is set & she recognized a lot of things the characters said & did back then.
Last year we watched the sequel- it was OK but most of us prefer the original.

8 Bit Christmas is up there with the classics.
Not exactly the same, but has some of the same story beats as A Christmas Story but is also still its own thing. As a kid of the late 80s/early 90s its exactly how Christmas was for me as a kid

She really is. I am so glad she came back fiercer than ever after stepping back after what Kim and Kanye did to her. Taylor not going after them legally speaks volumes of her character and epitomizes going high when someone else goes low.
I love that she is also re-recording her catalogue. Boss move.
The tatoo may be a little much but whatever floats your boat

just an opinion cuz we all got them...
With all the things going on in the world, this is what The Times believes is the person of the year? Ghandi, Eisenhower, JFK, MLK and now Taylor Swift...

She and Beyonce are the only two who can manage to unite people at least for one night.
Aside from those two, who would you have chosen?
