Good recommendations and cool video Sue!👍

A lot good ones mentioned here. I’ll add: Eyes Wide Shut Carol The Long Kiss Goodnight Gremlins Batman Returns Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Fargo Little Women (1994) While You Were Sleeping The Sound of Music Sometimes it doesn’t even need Christmas in it to feel like a Christmas movie. The overall aesthetic of the film can be enough to get me there. Edit: I googled it myself and saw someone joke that Se7en is a Christmas movie because of the “gift” in the box. Lol sorry morbid humor is always fun.

Non Christmas movies that have Christmas? I can go back to Alexander Korda's "Things to Come" from 1936, starring Raymond Massey. Movie begins during Christmas Eve, in a place called "Everytown" (although it is really London), when all of a sudden, war breaks out, eerily foreshadowing what would really happen just a few years later. Based on H.G Wells novel, it was the only one of his adaptions in which Wells participated in the making of this movie. Criterion has a great copy!

I'm surprised no one talks about the ref with denis leary and kevin spacey. Christmas is all over the place in that movie.

[@UToobin75]

I always liked Untamed Heart. Been some time since I've seen it. *The 2019 Blu-Ray must be out of print because it's going for $50-$60.
