My Holiday Movies
The holiday movies I remember from childhood probably aren't what you would consider 'holiday' movies like Frosty the snowman, or The Grinch that stole Christmas or Rudolph the red nose reindeer. I may not have even watched them at Christmastime, but I do now. I watch these movies every year because this is what I remember watching with my mother.

Is Emilia Pérez A True Story?. AI-Generated.
Emilia Pérez, an Oscar-contender and crime comedy musical on Netflix, has been the subject of speculation regarding its authenticity. The genre-bending movie, which was directed by French director Jacques Audiard (Rust and Bone, The Sisters Brothers), has inventive dance and musical numbers along with an intense narrative about regret and unmet desire. Despite criticism for misrepresenting transgender realities and using trans narrative tropes, the film is France's official submission for Best International Feature at the 97th Academy Awards, which will take place on March 2, 2025.

I Have A Favorite Christmas Movie Now
Introduction Christmas has a unique way of bringing people together. The joy of unwrapping gifts, the smell of cookies baking, the sound of carols, and for many, the tradition of watching Christmas movies all come together to make the season magical. For the longest time, I never really had a favorite Christmas movie. Sure, I enjoyed the classics, but nothing ever stood out. Until now.

I have a favorite Christmas movie now. Top Story - November 2024.
I have been in love with Christmas movies for most of my life. My mother's favorite was always "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" and since I couldn't pick a favorite, I just agreed with her. There were too many beautiful Christmas movies like "Miracle on 34th Street" and "A Christmas Carol" and "It's a Wonderful Life" and more. How could anyone pick a favorite? I've been watching Christmas themed movies for over 50 years and I've seen so many that were miraculous, and I've also seen some that were disappointing.

The Next 365 Days Ending Explained. Content Warning.
The Next 365 Days' conclusion has drawn even more attention than those of its predecessors because it concluded Netflix's contentious 365 Days trilogy. The trilogy is not at all predictable, despite the fact that the 365 Days films are unquestionably rife with clichés. Ironically, the most unexpected aspect of The Next 365 Days' conclusion is that it is the most grounded episode to date.
