And yes I am in the boat that Die Hard is a Christmas movie. I am in the 50% that is correct in this great debate.

I currently have It's a Wonderful Life on television.

I read earlier today that it was suspected as possible Communist propaganda by the FBI for a decade and investigated by the House Un-American Activities Committee.

I can believe it. The red scare was going strong in the immediate years following the release of It's A Wonderful Life. Thanks for the feedback.

I never really liked this movie but 'communist propaganda...?'
That is really weird, even given the 'Red Scare' era that just seems silly

Green Book

Given the culmination of this film involving a very special Christmas dinner I believe Green Book qualifies and celebrated in the category of Xmas movies.
