Top 5 Christmas movies

11/26/2017

​I have a confession. I’m a Christmas movie junkie. It started with those beautiful red and white dresses in White Christmas, and next thing I knew, I was sitting on the sofa with a bowl of popcorn and a glass of merlot; strung out on Lifetime and Hallmark Channel Christmas movies. I can’t seem to stop myself. The romantic comedies are my favorite. Sure, I take a break every now and then to watch Scrooged—I’m not a complete heathen—but it’s really all about the romance. Here are 5 of my favorite Christmas romance movies:
Holiday in Handcuffs with Mario Lopez and Melissa Joan Hart. Add in the fake fiancé trope with a struggling artist who needs a fiancé for Christmas. Did I mention the fake fiancé didn’t go willingly? Hence the handcuffs. Lighthearted and fun.
While You Were Sleeping. Technically not a “Christmas” movie, it takes place over Christmas, so it counts. This time, Sandra Bullock is the fake fiancé. Sort of, but she ends up falling for the brother (Bill Pullman). It’s a beautiful thing.
A Holiday Engagement, starring Jordan Bridges who plays—wait for it—a fake fiancé. I might have a thing for that trope. If you watch the trailer, you know the fake fiancé as the brother on Rizolli and Isles.
The Holiday with Jude Law, Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, and Jack Black. Two women change homes in different countries for the holiday. Great fun. Plus Jude Law.
12 Men of Christmas, starring Kristin Chenoweth and Josh Hopkins (Grayson from Cougar Town). She plans to help a Search and Rescue team raise money for their equipment with a calendar. A nude calendar. Enough said.
What's your favorite Christmas movie?

    Funny story. During the Mercury Retrograde Incident in September 2016, Cindy's original blog disappeared. Five years, gone in a random act of chaos. Now she gets to repopulate her blog world one post at a time. Join her if you dare. :)
