Angels, grinches, and Red Ryder BB guns: 'tis the season for holiday films
Description
'Tis the season, and you'll soon be seeing holiday films taking over screens (if they haven't already!). From classics like "It's a Wonderful Life," to 80s or 90s favorites like "A Christmas Story" or "Home Alone," to the love-them-or-hate-them Hallmark Christmas movies, there's so much to watch in the genre. What's your favorite holiday movie? What gives a seasonal film staying power? And what can you watch on the big screen locally if you want to get into the spirit this month? Our guests are film fans:
- Scott Pukos, communications director for The Little Theatre
- Jared Case, curator of film exhibitions for the Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum
- Cielo Ornelas MacFarlane, local cinephile and visual artist
