December 22, 2005Christmas Movie MemeIf it had been anyone else other than Tammi, I probably would not do it. But, it is, so here it is: 1. Original Grinch Okay, most are television, but deal. They were the the ones that said (and say) Christmas to me. Two others deserve honorable mention: Scrooged: Carol Kane had waaaaaay too much fun hitting Bill Murray, and I am not convinced all of it was acting. Add in some others that I like, and it is a good fun romp. Ghost and Mrs. Muir: The ex had never seen it, so one holiday we played it for her. The fact that she had gotten it confused with the Ghost and Mr. Chicken at one point before watching raised an eyebrow with both Dad and myself. Watching it somewhere between Thanksgiving and Christmas is something of a tradition these days, need to see if I still have a playable copy... What, it has a Christmas scene in it... LW Comments Thank youi darlin'. YOU are a sweetie. :-) Posted by: Tammi at December 23, 2005 12:09 AMCan't argue with any of your list, but you You missed White Christmas with Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye and Rosemary Clooney. I like the Christmas Carol version with George C. Scott (is that the original? I don't know), also the Muppet Christmas Carol which is funny and has good music (yes, I know, don't say it). I never thought of Ghost and Mrs. Muir as Christmas-y but it is a favorite movie of mine. I think I'll slip the Charlie Brown Christmas DVD in now that you've reminded me... I LOVE the ghost and Mrs. Muir! Posted by: Bou at December 23, 2005 05:21 AMI've never even heard of The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. Posted by: Contagion at December 23, 2005 01:31 PMJust two movies that must be included. 1989 Christmas Vacation. I saw it about 6 times before I got the "...big bulging man..." reference. The number one Christmas movie is the 1955 We're No Angels with Bogart, Aldo Ray & Peter Ustinov. Posted by: randy goss at December 23, 2005 08:31 PMPost a comment
