What is that fourth movie? Only the first three were part of my childhood.
Emmet Otters jugband Christmas. It is a Jim Henson movie. I prefer a Muppet Family Christmas and a Muppet Christmas Carol myself
Just watched it for the first time this year and I thought it was great
I only recognize the top left.
My mother incessantly played Fiddler on the Roof (1971) during holiday season. No one in my family is Jewish, so I’m not sure why she felt that was a good choice for holiday cheer. Anyway, I hate that movie (and musicals in general), but still hear “If I were a rich man” and “Tradition” in my head throughout December
The misers were my favorites!
Emmett Otter is a more recent addition from my wife, but the other three have been staples forever.
Also, Little Drummer Boy. Non-stop motion, Christmas Story is a mainstay. It was filmed in the town where my late grandpa grew up, so it was always fun to hear him talk about the places.
Beyond that, not as much tradition but still frequent: Charlie Brown Christmas, Frosty the Snowman, Santa Clause, and some variety of “Christmas Carol” (usually Mickey or Muppets, but not always).
My family always went hard into the Christmas movies.
One of my favorite moments on The Orville was when they showed Bortus the value of his daughter’s mutation by showing him Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
