Christmas Cinema

There are several holiday movies out there from "It's a Wonderful Life" to "Elf", and while I do enjoy traditional Christmas movies like these it's sometimes nice to switch it up a little. For instance there's "8 Femmes" it's a French musical/murder mystery that takes place in the French country side when a family (of 8 women) get together for Christmas. There's also "Angels in America". If you have 6 hrs to spare I highly recommend this HBO special that's out on DVD. I always watch it around Christmas even though it has very little to do with the holiday it still evokes all of the necessary emotions of a Christmas movie and it's just really really good so you should watch it anways. And finally there are the Christmas specials of your favorite TV programs. I'm a fan of the Office and 30 Rock holiday specials as.
