IMDb's list of the top 10 Christmas movies features classics like 'It's a Wonderful Life' and 'Home Alone', along with the controversial 'Die Hard'.
The festive season is the perfect time to indulge in a marathon of your favourite Christmas films. IMDb has compiled a list of the top ten Christmas films for your enjoyment, and the film that takes the top spot might surprise you. Securing the top spot is the 1946 film It's A Wonderful Life, which draws inspiration from Charles Dickens' 1843 novella A Christmas Carol.
Over the years, the movie has garnered numerous accolades, including recognition by the American Film Institute as one of the 100 best American films ever made. Narrowly missing out on the top position is Home Alone, a 1990 release featuring Macaulay Culkin as the cunning yet mischievous Kevin McCallister. The plot revolves around 10-year-old Kevin who is inadvertently left at home by his family during the holidays and must thwart two burglars' attempts to break into his house. The success of the first film led to a sequel, Home Alone: Lost in New York, released two years later, with a cameo appearance by Donald Trump, reports the Mirror. Third place goes to a film that has sparked many debates about whether it qualifies as a Christmas film - yes, it's Die Hard. The action-packed film featuring Bruce Willis has had internet users debating for years, with some arguing it's a Christmas movie due to its festive backdrop, while others contend that the film's nature disqualifies it from being a holiday flick. The 1988 film spawned a successful franchise, with four sequels released over the next 25 years. In fourth place is Tim Burton's iconic Edward Scissorhands, which premiered in 1990, starring Johnny Depp as the eponymous character. The narrative revolves around an incomplete artificial humanoid equipped with scissor blades instead of hands. After being adopted by a suburban family and developing feelings for their teenage daughter, Edward must grapple with the disparities between himself and the world he now inhabit
