Three Christmas movies that should be watched in order, but when they are shown on TV they are hardly ever in order.

1st: The Christmas Shoes"

2nd: The Christmas Blessing

3rd: The Christmas Hope

A very old movie that I love is called, "The Shop Around the Corner." So great. It stars a very young Jimmy Stewart.

Lion (the movie) with Dev Patel (and Nicole Kidman in a supporting role as his adoptive mother). Based on a true story. It's a rousing heart-warming 3 hanky triumph!

Need more books

Bump. I really enjoyed this thread.

These are heartwarming? Did you get the wrong thread?

Have you read any of these books?

Movie - Mr. Holland’s Opus.
I cry every time I watch it. Totally heartwarming. And, a great message.

The Martian

For the Christmas season, It's a Wonderful Life is pretty damn heartwarming. Gets me every time. Although you could say it's applicable to today's political situation.

"Playing nursemaid to a bunch of garlic eaters." Wow.

Brothers and Sisters
Parks and Recreation
Modern Family
Trophy Wife (short lived, but I liked it)

You are just in time for Gilmore Girls.
