That is a fantastic list, thanks! Love seeing "Fanny and Alexander (1982)" on here. I was going to mention Winona's "Little Women" but I'm glad you beat me to it! Also crazy to see 1986's "The Christmas Toy" because I just had all my family's home movies digitized, and this week I saw the "Christmas 1986 tape" and there's footage of my cousins and I watching this. Was a weird "woah I remember that" moment.

Holiday Inn - Fred Astaire and Bing Crosby, plus gorgeous gowns worn by the leading ladies. The Bishops Wife with Cary Grant as an angel….need I say more? Plus all the Rankin Bass specials, and of course A Charlie Brown Christmas!

My holiday viewing always includes 2 Billy Wilder films with Christmas related aspects: Stalag 17 (1953) and The Apartment (1960).
