Christmas Films

I watched 2 classic Christmas movies today - Home Alone and Die Hard.  Home Alone - where to start, so many observations.  I'm mainly struck by how huge the house is, how all the parts with John Candy could've and should've been cut, and how incredibly implausible everything is.  But hey, I guess that is part of the magic of the film.  Die Hard is just a bona fide action classic.  Love the cocaine douchebag guy, the ridiculous secondary characters (Argyle!), and maybe one of movie's best ever villains in Hans Gruber.
