Sophie's Favourite Christmas Movies
Posted on Thursday, 11 December 2014
Christmas movies are one of the many things I enjoy about this season!
Over the next two days Krizia and I will share with you some of our fav Christmas Films!
1. Eight Crazy Nights
Eight Crazy Nights is the animated, musical, holiday film centring on Hanukkah and created and starring Adam Sandler. It seems to be a yearly tradition that me and my sister watch this regardless of where we are in the world. It follows the adult life of Davey Stone whom after his parent's death has lead a troubled life, after causing havoc and knocking over Menorah he gets saved from going to jail but Whitey Duvall, a 70 year old man that has one foot bigger then the other. Through the film we get to see Davey grow and tackle his demons.
2. Elf
Elf centres around Buddy played by Will Ferrell who as a baby snuck into Santa's sack and was then raised in the North Pole. Without the corruption of the real world, Buddy has an essence of innocence about him and his naivety leads to many a humorous moments as he travels to NYC to find his real father.
3. Muppets Christmas Carol
This timeless Christmas story has been retold in this Disney film with the help of the loveable Muppets. Kermit and Miss Piggy play Mr and Mrs Cratchit, Michael Caine plays Mr Scrooge and Gonzo plays the narrator Charles Dickens.
4. Love Actually
Love Actually centres around a handful of strangers and their individual stories around Christmas time. With a stellar cast boasting the creme de la creme of British talent in the likes of Colin Firth, Emma Thompson, Liam Neeson, Hugh Grant this movie was always going to be a fan favourite. With lovable characters like Colin the "Sex God" and his plans to move to America for all the American girls, young boy Sam who learns to play the drums so he can impress the girl he's in love with and Hugh Grant playing the Prime Minister and dancing around 10 Downing Street.
