Which old film would you like to see this Christmas?

I saw some of Where Eagles Dare last night..  good fun ...

I will almost certainly watch It's a Wonderful Life.

I always associate The Great Escape with christmas.

And I have a strong hankering to rewatch Lawrence of Arabia. Given Peter O'Toole's recent passing it is bound to be on some channel.

I do like Where Eagles Dare,  Bridge In The River Kwai seems to be a regular xmas time film - well I got the DVD one around 12 years ago Christmas and it's seems to have become a tradition.  Also Gladiator and Fight Club, although not 'old' films seem to have become habitual yuletide viewing.

"It's A Wonderful Life", certainly,

Maybe "The Ref" with Denis Leary.

Von Ryan's Express  .that was always a Christmas staple when I was growing up.
Also would love to see 'North West Frontier' with Kenneth More.. a crackin' film about crossing badlands in India on an old steam train..
