Don't waste another second of your valuable holiday time on
another boring Christmas movie. Film critic Alonso Duralde
highlights the best - and worst - movies of the Yuletide
season with this fun and informative film guide. Whether you're looking for the classics, family favorites,
holiday horror, Christmas-themed crime epics, or the most
wonderfully awful cinematic lumps of coal, Have Yourself a
Movie Little Christmas will point you and your rental queue
in the right direction. Whether your idea of a holiday
classic is White Christmas, Bad Santa, Die Hard, Eyes Wide
Shut, or Gremlins, you'll find the right film for you, as
well as an exhaustively entertaining breakdown of the
various screen Scrooges, from Alistair Sim to Jim Carrey
to...Tori Spelling? And get ready to encounter movies you
may never have heard of from the gritty noir Christmas
Holiday, starring 1930s singing ingenue Deanna Durbin in her
first hard-bitten adult role, to the loony Santa Claus, a
Mexican kiddie movie in which St. Nick teams up with Merlin
to fight the devil! Plot synopses, video availability, and fun facts - did you
know the actor cast as Uncle Billy in It's a Wonderful Life
was also in the running to play mean old Mr. Potter? - make
this a stocking stuffed with information you'll turn to
every Christmas season.
