Christmas Chronicles (2018)

What a feel good movie. It's fast becoming my favourite of the modern era slightly edged out by Christmas Vacation and Love Actually. When I first heard about this and that Kurt Russell was playing Santa my reaction was What???? Granted I had just rewatched the Thing but Kurt made for a hip, groovy Santa. The movie had great acting, good effects, cute elves and a pleasant surprise at the end. Well done Netflix.

12. Dr Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas 1966

I caught this classic before I left for work this morning. These Christmas shorts put me in a good mood, I need to try and watch more of these early in the day.

13. Dr Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas 2000

This is a very colorful and detailed live action version. Jim Carrey is good as the Grinch and they did an amazing job of recreating Whoville.

Janet Leigh as a Soviet pilot/double agent and John Wayne plays a US Air Force officer that falls in love with her.

Christmas Bloody Christmas - 3.5/5
(first-time watch, AMC+/Shudder)

It's the low-budget grindhouse Christmas version of The Terminator meets Terrifier 2. It's nowhere near as good as either of those, but it's enjoyable enough for what it is.
I'm sure I'll add it to my annual rotation of non-traditional Christmas movies.

Awesome comedy version of A Christmas Carol. I just liked this ok on first viewing but it has grown on me over the years and has become an annual
viewing.

La noire de ... (Black Girl) Senegal, 1966

Ouch, what a punch to the gut. A young woman from the outskirts of Dakar thinks she has landed a golden ticket when she is invited to work as a governness in France. Quite soon she realizes she is to be a domestic servant in a quite small apartment. It's a heartbreaking film about colonialism and racism, and it is very effective in its short 60 minutes.
