December 18th, 2023

 I laid around all day yesterday and watched my favorite Christmas movies. I didn’t even watch the Bears game.

I started with “White Christmas” and “The Bishop’s Wife.” Then I watched “Love Actually” and “The Family Stone.” I took a break to go to Walgreens and that reminded me of Mr. Gower, so I watched “It’s a Wonderful Life.”
I finished the night with a couple low budget gems. “Feast of Seven Fishes” which I discovered last year, is a fun movie about an Italian family in 1983. The other gem I like is a movie nobody really knows called “Noelle” from 2007. Filmed entirely on Cape Cod and also known as “Mrs. Worthington’s Party.
From ten in the morning until eight at night…. Christmas movies.
Those are my top seven Christmas movies. Round it out with “A Christmas Story,” “A Christmas Carol (1951)” and “Miracle on 34th.”
If I go to eleven I’ll include “The Muppet Christmas Carol” movie from the early nineties.
That is the annual Jumbo’s Christmas movie list.
