ha_banos Posted December 10 Posted December 10 So I think from this most detailed discussion, we have deduced a long list of criteria to qualify for being 'a Christmas movie'. Which I've taken the liberty of capturing here for our analytical convenience. ✅ takes place somewhere near Xmas day +/- 7 days.

Li Bai Posted Friday at 08:11 AM Posted Friday at 08:11 AM Just came across Macaulay Culkin's take on Die Hard being or not being a Christmas movie and I must say, he has a point 🤔 Still, it most definitely is a Christmas movie. 3

joeypots Posted Monday at 05:57 PM Posted Monday at 05:57 PM The Godfather is the greatest of all Christmas movies. Pivotal scenes in it take place during the holidays and therefore qualify it for the category. Just like Die Hard. This is why so many people watch it on Christmas, and it's a better movie than Die Hard, From CHATgpt: Why Christmas Matters in The Godfather Irony: Family, peace, and rebirth vs. betrayal and murder Catholic symbolism: Christmas → Baptism → sin vs. redemption Seasonal metaphor: Winter = old power dying, new power rising Contrast: Warm interiors, cold exteriors — safety vs. danger 3 1
