SLIDESHOW: Top 11 Best Christmas Movies
5 of 11
"A Christmas Story" (1983)
For the cynical sentimentalists out there, "A Christmas Story" is an American vignette of Christmas in the 1940s, through the awkward eyes of 9-year-old Ralphie. You'll shoot your eye out.
-
"It's a Wonderful Life" (1946)
Probably the best-loved Christmas movie of all time, Frank Capra's 1946 classic, "It's a Wonderful Life," stars Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed.
-
"Miracle on 34th Street" (1947)
Made just a year after "It's a Wonderful Life," George Seaton's "Miracle on 34th Street" won three Academy awards in 1947 and continues to rekindle the childlike wonder of Santa Claus today.
-
"A Charlie Brown Christmas" (1965)
This cartoon classic has aired like clockwork every single year since it debuted in 1965, making it one of the most successful and long-lasting television specials of all time. It just doesn't get old.
-
"How the Grinch Stole Christmas" (1966)
Do we even need to explain? Dr. Seuss + Christmas = Classic
-
"A Christmas Story" (1983)
For the cynical sentimentalists out there, "A Christmas Story" is an American vignette of Christmas in the 1940s, through the awkward eyes of 9-year-old Ralphie. You'll shoot your eye out.
-
"National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" (1989)
Chainsaws, Jell-O molds, chemical toilets, brownouts and fried cats. If you ever feel like your holiday season couldn't get any worse, Chevy Chase will put things in perspective.
-
"Home Alone" (1990)
Though not strictly a Christmas movie, "Home Alone" is set during the Christmas season. And every time we hear "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" it's the first thing we think of.
-
"The Muppet Christmas Carol" (1992)
There have been a lot of attempts at turning this Dickens classic into a movie, but there's nothing quite like Henson's...
-
"The Nightmare Before Christmas" (1993)
Tim Burton didn't just revolutionize Christmas and Halloween by combining them in the this film, he revolutionized stop-motion production. And an original soundtrack by Danny Elfman? More than a Hot Topic trend.
-
"The Santa Clause" (1994)
Until this movie, there were very few satisfying explanations for the difficult questions kids had about ol' Saint Nick -- like how he fits down a chimney and why he never shaves his beard. Well, here you go.
-
"Elf" (2003)
One of Will Ferrell's most successful films and the most recent on our list, "Elf" was an instant classic. If Buddy's adorable innocence doesn't get you, the adorable Zooey Deschanel will.

So many people make Christmas about them and theirs but have lost the TRUE meaning. The birth of our Lord and savior. 3rd grade students shown a bunch of pics. Santa. Grinch. Etc.and a pic of Jesus and 90 percent of them did not know who the picture of Jesus was. Sad so very sad.
