Old Christmas Movies: Matt's Faves |

[@Tommy-p1t7g]

Matt, You are in our thoughts, you didn't have to do this this year, so thank you, and God bless,

[@popgoesthe60s52]

This video was an easy way for me to enjoy these, which I normally would be watching with Heather. Thank you for the kind words and support.

Alastair Sim (A Christmas Carol) shows such an extreme change of heart from nasty miser to joyful altruism that makes this version the best IMO.

[@jazzpunk]

Agree 100%. Stage actors rule...

[@cynthiaforsythe8989]

Great video, Matt. Thank you! I was waiting for Night of the Hunter and I didn’t know if you would have that on your list. Incredible film ! And ends so beautifully on Christmas morning. I’m going to check out several on your list that I haven’t seen.

[@guytapper999]

Matt-Thanks for the great list of suggestions for holiday viewing. All the best to you on what is undoubtedly a difficult time of the year. Btw, you have got a kick-ass Christmas tree!

[@popgoesthe60s52]

Thanks! I'm glad you liked the tree.

[@alove4evr382]

Like retro music, old films have a comforting way of bringing back great memories. As always, I enjoyed your video very much, Matt. Thank you! May this holiday season provide you with healing and peaceful memories, Mary

[@popgoesthe60s52]

It's been a tough year but I'm finding comfort in the old movies. Thank you, Mary.

[@bacarandii]

I stopped by to recommend some slightly under-the-radar personal favorites -- and you got 'em! "Holiday" (the 1938 gem that taught me everything I know about work and money), "Remember the Night" (Babs and Fred -- the "Double Indemnity" pair, four years before the gal in the ankle bracelet slinked down those stairs) and "Christmas in Connecticut" (Babs again -- with Dennis Morgan and Sydney Greenstreet)... Thanks for sharing the warmth!

[@patrickmoreau7592]

My favorite Christmas story is a Charlie Brown Christmas 🎄 May your Christmas be good I am glad you’re still doing this

[@popgoesthe60s52]

Just watched that one a few days ago. I still love it.

[@DoohickeyDinkle]

Merry Christmas, Matt. Good to see you hanging in there.

[@PaulAshley]

Great selections! So glad you included "Remember the Night" and "It Happened On Fifth Avenue". And Sims' Christmas Carol is by far the best version. A more recent one you should see is a made for TV movie called "Silent Night Lonely Night" with Lloyd Bridges and Shirley Jones.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

I'll have to check that one out - than you!

[@bobburroughs6241]

The Apartment, classic, Robert Mitchum is a favourite and the spooky Night of the Hunter one of his best. A great selection Matt - season's greetings at this special time, with peace and love.

[@dadaveda]

Thanks Matt. Perfect timing, I was looking for something to watch tonight.

[@michaelholycross2633]

Much respect for keeping on keeping on. Still praying for you.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

Thank you, Michael.

[@alv4794]

Merry Christmas Matt! Boy that's a whole lotts Christmas Movies, Very cool!

[@johnalello9233]

Great collection of Christmas theme movies lots of favorites in your collection you have a nice variety! Like your Christmas tree looks pretty in white! Glad to see you putting out new videos! Have a Merry Christmas and holidays! Enjoyed your show!

[@popgoesthe60s52]

Yes that tree is white-flocked. I usually would get a real tree but Heather bought this one in her first Christmas in Milwaukee and I love it.

[@carolplante]

Merry Christmas 🎄 Matt! I’ve basically have the same pile. Some in VHS. lol. I also like Charlie Brown Christmas. I start watching right after Thanksgiving. Just finished this morning Bishop’s Wife. Grant is awesome. I study the houses, furniture, Nick knacks too. I love the set of Christmas in Connecticut. Greenstreet is superb. 🎉

[@gregsaltis1661]

Just discovered "Remember the Night" this year. Knew nothing about and really enjoyed it. I like the non-Hollywood ending. It affirms the depth of the relationship in a unique way. Beulah Bondi is the greatest. Have a Merry Christmas.

[@tonearmgray9537]

Fantastic and interesting selection, Matt. And so pleased that you gave a nod to The Man Who Came to Dinner. Funnily enough, Marx Brothers films have a strong Christmas association for me. I think that's because, years ago, the BBC used to show them very late on Christmas night to close their Christmas programming. Wishing you a peaceful Christmas, Matt, and know that you're in the thoughts of all your viewers.

[@lyndarosborough869]

Thank you so much Matt for this lovely Holiday episode … you always make everything you do on “Pop Goes” very special … cheers to you … Merry Christmas… and PS …Love your tree! 🎄🌟🎶 🎁

[@popgoesthe60s52]

Thank you and Merry Christmas, Lynda!

[@erichoehn8262]

Great list. I like Reginald Owen’s Christmas Carol as well. One set at Christmas is Destination Tokyo. The celebrate Christmas on the submarine. Merry Christmas. I hope you are surrounded by family and friends.

[@edphs75]

The Bishop’s Wife, The Miracle on 34th Street(the original), Holiday Affair and A Christmas Carol with Alistair Sim are my favorites too! God Bless you Matt!

[@stevemoody13]

I just got Remember the Night and Holiday Affair delivered today! I've been really getting into older classics the last couple years, especially noir. I had never seen It's a Wonderful Life before last year. I wasn't impressed at first, but then my latest classic crush, Gloria Grahame, walked by in her nice dress and I was hooked. Merry Christmas!

[@popgoesthe60s52]

You'll love 'em! Thanks Steve.

[@jltbass56]

Merry Christmas, Matt! ☃️🎄🥂🍾

[@drummer78]

Bless you…we are thinking about you. Merry Christmas and thank you for your KZbin channel.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

My pleasure.

[@KBOB-mi8gb]

Some thoughts: "It's A Wonderful Life" is my favorite Christmas film. And I'm old enough to have seen it before it got trendy, so I'm not just jumping on the bandwagon. The only film that could really compete with it would be the 1951 "Scrooge" (released in the US as "A Christmas Carol"). It's a head-scratcher for me how most of the Internet seems to favor the 1938 MGM version, which I enjoy just fine - but the Alastair Sim version is virtually flawless. "The Night Of The Hunter" is my favorite film of 1955, but I never think of it as a Christmas film, since so little of it takes place at that time. I loved "The Apartment" when I saw it many moons ago, but completely forgot that it takes place during the Christmas season. I'm also a fan of "Miracle On 34th Street" and "The Bishop's Wife." Speaking of the latter film, the little girl is the same that played Zuzu in "It's A Wonderful Life," so in consecutive years, she appeared in classic Christmas films featuring angels that walk among people.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

I appreciate the comments!

[@dlschgo]

Merry Christmas, Matt! She's with you, don't worry.

[@festidious2644]

Hi, Matt: I have been watching Remember The Night every Christmas for a few years now. My favourite part is her moment of realization as to what a good family is like when they are singing The End Of A Perfect Day. I was never crazy about Barbara but she is beautiful in this movie. One I didn't see you mention is The Miracle Of Morgan's Creek which is fun to watch at Christmas. I agree, Night Of The Hunter is one bizarre movie. My favourite part is the artistic scene when the children are floating down the river and the girl is singing. The Alastair Sim version of A Christmas Carol is the best. If you want to have a blast, watch Rich Little's A Christmas Carol comedy. Thank you for all the suggestions.

[@stevendavis1940]

You know movies as well as music. I knew all the films you mentioned but don't watch them - except the Alastair Sim Scrooge. I agree with you about that film. It's the one I watch every year.

[@Tom-el5cq]

Hey Matt, great list, some of my favs in there, & ones I’d like to see too! Hope you’re doing well. If it’s any consolation, your great content provided a welcome distraction from a difficult time personally, not long ago. Safe to say you’ve got a lot of support here. On a lighter note, I’ll be using that Tom and Jerry recipe of yours again this year.🎄🥃

[@donkeyboy585]

Alastair Sim was the definitive Scrooge for sure. And Maureen O’Hara in Miracle On 34th st is just ♥️ Merry Christmas sir

[@bmorgan3283]

Thanks for doing this, Matt. Some great movies!

[@ndogg20]

Thanks Matt, learned of some new classics and reminded of others like Sim's Scrooge. Might add a new one if you haven't as yet heard of it "The Holdovers" which for me is a new holiday classic. Merry Christmas.

[@bertskybass6360]

Great choices! Most of these I hadn’t seen and need to see. “Holiday Inn” is a yearly staple. (Barring the Lincoln’s Birthday section😂) And White Christmas is also high in the yearly list. Thanks again for the great content! Merry Christmas Matt🎄🎄🎄

[@Alan-v8r]

Another top-notch video Matt. Wishing you a top-notch Christmas!🌟🎄

[@popgoesthe60s52]

Thank you, Alan!

[@ChristopherHawtree-tb1xc]

The earlier version of Holiday is also worth seeing.

[@John_Fugazzi]

What a comprehensive list! I'm also a big fan of classic movies and have seen all but three of these (I never heard of Beyond Tomorrow & Christmas Holiday). You included all of my classic favorites. I would have recommended an all-tiime favoriye, Remember the Night, as I do to any friends who like vintage films because hardly anyone knows it, but I'm glad you do.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

I'm glad you enjoyed the list! I love Remember the Night. I'm always happy to find other classic film fans.

[@davidcatalano3781]

God bless and Christmas blessings to you. And thank you so much for a lovely video.

Merry Christmas, Matt.

[@Moonie804]

Thank you for this! I wish you a good time with your friends and family, a lovely Christmas and a terrific new year ❤

[@dalehoustman4737]

A fine array of Christmas movies - mostly from my personal favorite eras of Hollywood cinema, the 30s and 40s. About “Remember the Night”… it was written by Preston Sturges before he was a director and is a superb romcom with some solid dialogue, a great narrative, and a nice dollop of Xmas “feels.” My traditional watch is “White Christmas” which is delightfully colorful with some fine songs and its own supply of holiday tears. The best to you in these trying times!

[@popgoesthe60s52]

Thank you, Dale!

[@buttercup1765]

Merry Christmas, Matt. Will have to check out The Apartment again!

[@markeliasof1830]

Love the Alistair Sim version - it’s playing on TUBI (usually hard to find each year). Glad to see you active on youtube. May this coming year be far better for you.

[@Neal_Schier]

Definitely enjoying, from your recipe last year, a Tom & Jerry. Your knowledge of the old film Christmas genre is, just as your knowledge of 60s music, encyclopedic! Merry Christmas to you Matt and all the best in 2025.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

Merry Christmas to you too! Cheers to 2025!

[@ediblehorse]

Thanks for the vid Matt. Been thinking of you much and glad see you are doing well. Merry Christmas!

[@popgoesthe60s52]

Thank you, Antonio.

[@Peter7966]

Merry Christmas. I've seen many of those older movies a half dozen times over the years. They are sweet and innocent by today's standards. It's nice to put one on and drift back to a simpler times, at least simpler for me.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

I agree, they are refreshing in a way.

[@davederave792]

Most I've seen Matt but you supplied a couple I'm going to check out. Merry Christmas!

[@FoxoChaca]

Excellent rundown of Christmas movies! Merry Christmas to you, Matt!

[@daryljspetz2967]

My favorite Christmas movie is also A Christmas Carol with Alastair Sim the best A Christmas Carol movie ever.

[@bertskybass6360]

“It Happened on 5th Ave” is on TCM tonight at 8:00 Gonna have to check it out!

[@johngalt5411]

Beautiful Christmas tree! I love Christmas movies, always on the search for some obscure treasure. I recently watched a black & white foreign Christmas short on HBO-Max called A Christmas Dream, it was delightful.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

I'll have to check that one out, thanks!

[@robertzastrow4648]

Nice to see you back, Matt! Know about a week ago, you did a video as a tribute to Heather mish-mashing Beatles/solo Beatles songs. Some of the films you talked about (The Stanwyck movies. Holiday, Inn, White Christmas, Holiday Affair, Lemon Drop Kid) I also enjoy and have on DVD. A couple, Cary Grant's Holiday ( Have heard about it) and Ginger Rogers' I'll Be Seeing You (Which I didn't know about) will check out. Probably my favorite version of A Christmas Carol is the 1970 musical version with Albert Finney called Scrooge. There's also The Holly & The Ivy, an early 1950s British film. There's also a British film (From the 1950s/60s) called The Christmas Tree, about young boys living in an Orphanage who go out (With a lot of trouble) to get a Christmas tree to put up in the Orphanage. Probably my favorite cheesiest Christmas movie is Santa Claus Conquers The Martians, with a young Pia Zadora as one of the Martian children. You didn't mention this, but Monte Wooley also is in The Bishop's Wife/only a few scenes, though. Also enjoy O.Henry's stories (Have O.Henry's Full House on DVD). He wrote maybe a total of 5 or 6 Christmas stories, besides The Gift Of The Magi. Probably my favorite is called A Chapparal Christmas Gift, where an outlaw, in the old west, tries to escape the law by dressing up as Santa. Though he's gunned down in the end, as "Santa" he does do some good deeds. Hope the season, as well as 2025, goes well for you, Matt. Looking forward to watching new Pop Goes The 60s/artists, bands you'll be covering, when you're ready.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

I didn't know O Henry did more Christmas stories - cool. I appreciate all the support, Robert.

[@robertzastrow4648]

@@popgoesthe60s52 One of his Christmas stories is titled An Unfinished Christmas Story, which only goes a couple of pages and breaks off mid sentence. Have always been interested in artists unfinished works, whether stories, music, films or paintings. For music, think the most important thing is whether a vocal track (For an unfinished song) was recorded. Over the years, Charles Dickens' final unfinished novel, The Mystery Of Edwin Drood, has been completed by other writers. Edgar Allan Poe's unfinished story The Light House, was completed by Horror writer Robert Bloch. Would think that to officially complete or finish anything an artist left incomplete, permission from their estate or whoever owns the rights to their works, would need to be granted.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

@@robertzastrow4648 Thank you for this, Robert.

[@tomscott7271]

Matt, thank you for sharing many Christmas movies that we may not have considered watching. Merry Christmas!

[@robertwshroyer]

Great video Matt. Over the years I've seen many of the Christmas and holiday-adjacent films you showed. Every year, however, I'll be watching one of It's a Wonderful Life, the 1970 Albert Finney Scrooge, or - the best - the 1951 Alistar Sim A Christmas Carol. You had The Lemon Drop Kid in your list, and I would highly recommend watching it if you can. I've not seen that one for years, and it's an excellent post-Bing flick.

[@robertzastrow4648]

Recently discovered The Lemon Drop Kid, enjoyed it and bought a copy of it. Probably decided to reply to your comment to Matt, because we share the same first name/Robert. Don't know if you've heard of these Christmas/Holiday films, but a couple I'd recommend would be The Christmas List (Think that's the title) made in the late '70s/early '80s. It stars Michael Learned (Best known for playing Olivia Walton, on The Waltons TV series), who plays a divorced woman, who relocates to a different city. In the new city, she decides to join her Church's choir, which is run by a tyrannical Choir Master (Played by John Houseman, duplicating his Professor Kingsfield/Paper Chase character). The choir is rehearsing Handel's Messiah, and the Choir Master is never happy with how they're singing. The movie ends on a positive note. Another film would be Yes Virginia, There Is A Santa Claus. There's both an early 1970s animated version, and a mid 1980s version (Think it was made by Hallmark) starring Richard Thomas (As Virginia's father), Charles Bronson as Reporter Frank Church, who wrote the famous reply back to Virginia O'Hanlon's letter, asking if there was really a Santa Claus. It's a good family Christmas movie, based upon something which really happened!

[@robertzastrow4648]

A couple of corrections: The two movies I mentioned, the first starring Michael Learned and John Houseman, came out in 1980, and is called A Christmas Without Snow. The animated version of Yes Virginia, There Is A Santa Claus came out in 1974. The version starring Richard Thomas and Charles Bronson came out in 1991.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

Lemon Drop Kid is probably one I will pick up by next year. Thank you for commenting, Robert!

[@alanfunt4013]

Brilliant as always. MERRY CHRISTMAS, MERRY CRIMBLE to all!

[@shyman99]

There's something about old Christmas movies that are endearing to celebrate the holiday season. Perhaps a touch of innocence from the innocent age to remind us there was a time before technology removed part of the human experience.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

That innocence is hard to find these days.

[@JMLin-l6q]

"It Happened on Fifth Avenue" (1947) ... heart-warming 😊

I have to agree A Christmas Carol is the ultimate Christmas movie although I still can't decide which version I like best. Perhaps the Mr Magoo version from the 60s lol. Merry Christmas Matt

[@ChristopherHawtree-tb1xc]

Somebody else has mentioned The Holly and the Ivy which is terrific.

[@willzimjohn]

I was going to mention that one. Sir Ralph Richardson is brilliant. Heart-breaking at times, it really delves into the nitty-gritty of the meaning of Christmas at its essence. Superb performances all around.

[@4-dman464]

Nice one, Matt, old movies are the best, especially Alastair Sim version of *A Christmas Carol* . An old British ghost story Christmas tradition harks back at least as far as Dickens, & then M. R. James continued the tradition with ghostly short stories told at Cambridge. *BBC Ghost Stories For Christmas* was a 1970s annual TV tradition that dramatised one spooky story for Christmas, usually M. R. James but also in 1975 Dickens's *The Signalman* . Run-time was about 40 mins but powerful atmosphere. It all started unofficially with *Jonathan Miller's* eccentric adaptation of 'O Whistle My Lad & I'll Come To You' (M. R. James again) in 1968. Haunting & classic. BBC revived this Christmas tradition around 2012 with Mark Gatiss at the helm for 3 years anyway. All these have DVD & blu ray releases, though I;m not sure how available they are in America. You can sample them here on thetube.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

Thank you, I will have to check these out on KZbin.

[@jake105]

Great Video Matt. You have most of my favorites. I'll give you two others. Donovan's Reef 1962 John Wayne and Lee Marvin & Stalag 17 1953 William Holden. Fyi The very first time I saw Come to the Stable was in 2018. It's my sentimental favorite. Merry Christmas!

[@pleasantvalleypickerca7681]

"Remember the Night" is a great film that is overlooked. "Christmas in Conneticut" is a favorite as the writing is brilliant and the cast makes it work. "Holiday Inn" is a favorite due to Crosby and Astaire playing off each other. "The Bishops Wife" is amazing. I keep telling folks about it as it may be my favorite Christmas film. "Miracle on 34th Street" is the best Santa movie. "Wonderful Life" is wonderful even though most of it isn't very Christmasy. The Sim "Christmas Carol" is the best version of a timeless story. Dickens story just gets better and better.

[@popgoesthe60s52]

It's hard to beat the Dickens story. Thanks for the comments!

[@frugalseverin2282]

You hit all my old favorites, "The Bishop's Wife", "Remember the Night", "We're No Angels", "Miracle on 34th Street". One modern Christmas film I like by Nora Ephron is "Mixed Nuts". It won't get reacted to on You Tube because the 3 main actors Steve Martin, Madeline Kahn and Rita Wilson work at a suicide helpline. It's filled with loads of comedic actors you'll recognize. It's very Christmasy.

[@tj10017]

"Cash on Demand," a noirish thriller about a bank robbery on Christmas Eve, is a worthy (if offbeat) addition to your list. Peter Cushing stars. It's from 1961 but feels very much like a movie from the 1950s.
