Hi Diane,
The holiday season is just around the corner, and I wondered if you could recommend a handful of classic movies for my entire family to enjoy?

Mary,
The holiday season is filled with family-friendly films, so you’re in luck. I’ve taken it upon myself to make a top 5 list of holiday classics. For some holiday ambiance, be sure use the Glade® Sense & Spray® Apple Cinnamon refill, part of the Glade® Holiday Collection.
5. Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer
At number 5, we have an old standby and perennial favourite for children, teenagers, and nostalgic parents alike. This stop-motion classic will dazzle your kids with its classic tale and charming animation, while conjuring memories of your Christmas past.
4. National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
Gather ‘round the television for a peek into the lives of everyone’s favourite holiday family, the Griswolds. Featuring classic comic turns from Chevy Chase and Randy Quaid, your household will be crying tears of Christmas laughter as the Griswold’s try to salvage their holiday disaster.
3. Elf
Yet another hilarious holiday performance, this time from Will Ferrell. Ferrell plays Buddy the Elf, a full-grown man who thinks he’s an elf, on a journey to find his real father in New York City.
2. Home Alone
Macaulay Culkin plays Kevin McAllister, a bratty young kid who gets left behind by his family for the holidays. Hilarity ensues as Kevin is forced to defend his home from two burglars played by Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern.
1. Charlie Brown Christmas
A personal favourite, this charming tale features the most lovable loser around, Charlie Brown, and his search for the true meaning of Christmas. Featuring a classic jazz score by Vince Guaraldi, this mellow holiday story will win the hearts of young and old alike.
Hope you enjoy them all,
Diane
