It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

🎄 In Episode 34 of Film By Numbers, we use Miracle on 34th Street as our festive jumping-off point to talk about Christmas movies as a whole.

Along the way, we compare and contrast it with other seasonal favorites, including National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Carol, and It’s a Wonderful Life. From heartfelt tradition to sharp comedy and moral lessons, we explore how different Christmas movies capture the spirit of the season in their own ways.

Is Miracle on 34th Street the definitive Christmas movie, or just one piece of a much bigger holiday canon?

Join us as we break down the films that define Christmas at the movies. 🎅🎬
