We ALL love Christmas films, don’t we ?

Watching them is part of our preparation for the festive season.

Watching them is part of our tradition.

Watching them is part of our culture.

I love them. Very much.

So, today is the 13th of December, just 12 days from Christmas Day,

In celebration of this, here is a list of MY favourite 12 Christmas films.

I love films, here are my favourite 12

13th January 2023

So, after a couple of serious blogs, I thought I would lighten it up a bit with a list of my favourite films.

Although I accept and thrive on the randomness of life, I must say I like order, lists and, in particular, ordered lists. I am a bit geeky I suppose. Or odd, maybe.

Anyway, like most people, I love a good film, of almost any genre.

I was thinking about this the other day, and thought I would post a ranked list of my 12 favourite films, some are classics, some aren’t. YET!

These are just films that I love, enjoy watching, have watched many times, and always make time to rewatch when on the TV (and yes I own most of them on iTunes).

I wonder what films are on your favourite list. Please feel free to comment on my twitter feed at @apple_shwn
