One of the most popular episodes of our pod was #12 from December of last year, "DECK THEM HALLS: CELEBRATING THE HOLIDAYS IN CLASSIC FILM." Because of the great feedback we got on that show (and because Steve and Nan are WAY behind on their holiday shopping), we’re replaying that episode to celebrate the best time of year for holiday movies. We hope you enjoy it, and we’ll be back next week with a brand new episode! Happy Holidays from all of us at "From Beneath The Hollywood Sign!"

"DECK THEM HALLS: CELEBRATING THE HOLIDAYS IN CLASSIC FILM" (067/012)

While chestnuts roasting on that open fire and sleigh bells ringing are nice, nothing gets you in the mood for the holidays like a good ole seasonal movie. Well, get ready to unwrap an early present from Steve and Nan as they share their favorite lesser-known holiday films. And along the way, they discuss everything from Clarence the Angel, French nuns, boxing nuns, ROBERT MITCHUM’s drug bust, and millionaires tossing money out of their Park Avenue apartment window. Don’t miss this holiday spectacular!
