Goodfellas (1990)
Another classic Mafia film that is clearly a holiday gem. There are several scenes set at Christmas time over the course of the movie, but the one of the most important scenes that takes the cake is at the bar following the Lufthansa heist.
Gremlins (1984)
A mogwai is the ultimate Christmas gift gone wrong, with chaos unfolding under holiday lights
Bridget Jones’s Diary (2001)
Awkward family Christmas gatherings and Colin Firth’s holiday sweater make the season feel pivotal.
When Harry Met Sally (1989)
Its iconic New Year’s Eve finale builds on the holiday’s romantic connotations.
Batman Returns (1992)
Gotham’s snow-covered streets and Christmas decorations juxtapose the darkness of the Penguin and Catwoman’s schemes.
Die Hard (1988)
Set during a Christmas party at Nakatomi Plaza, the holiday theme contrasts sharply with the intense action. It’s about togetherness—albeit in a chaotic way!
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (2005)
The appearance of Father Christmas (Santa) and the wintry landscape evoke holiday magic in a fantasy setting.
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005)
The holiday season adds ironic cheer to a dark, twist-filled murder mystery, with Christmas lights twinkling in the background of chaos.
Little Women (2019)
Christmas is central to several key scenes, representing family unity, generosity, and hope, which align with the story’s heartfelt themes.
The Godfather (1972)
At least part of the film has Christmas settings. In fact one of the most pivotal parts, occurs during the Christmas holidays: the scene early in the film where Don Corleone (played by Marlon Brando) is shot by rival gangsters.
