There is no time when Hollywood is in a rush like Christmas. The potential for good movies during the Christmas season is huge.
A tragedy at Christmas is even more emotional and dramatic for the audience. Love stories are more beautiful and heartwarming, and Christmas comedies are reminiscent of your own funny stories under the Christmas tree.
The community loves these Christmas movies
Even on streaming platforms, you can hardly save yourself from Christmas movies and TV shows right now. And rightly so: according to research, Christmas movies cheer us up. They release feel-good hormones, increase dopamine production in our body, and make us feel better naturally.
Blick wanted to know: Which Christmas movie do you particularly like and why? The 1973 fairy tale movie “Three Nuts Nuts for Cinderella” is very popular among many. Reader Michèle simply comments on the film: “It’s the perfect Christmas movie for me. It’s so good I have to shed a tear every now and then.”
“I’ve been watching the same movie at Christmas for 31 years”
The nearly 40-year-old classic isn’t the only old movie still to be seen for the Blick community at Christmas. Also often mentioned: “Little Lord” (1980). Reader Michael writes: “An unforgettable film with Sir Alec Guinness. A wonderful story about a little boy who grows up in poverty, has a flamboyant character and a sweet heart. What a surprising effect the cute boy has on his grumpy old grandfather, it’s simply unforgettable, I look forward to this movie every year!”
“Beautiful Christmas Eve” (1989) with Chevy Chase should not be missing from this list! Several readers contacted Blick and named this movie. Representative of Reader Manuela’s comment: “When I first saw it 31 years ago, I promised myself that I would watch this movie every year. Of course I know it by heart now!”
