Blogmas: Film Countdown


Welcome to my first post of The E Word's ’12 Days of Blogmas’. Here you will expect to see festive cheer, a kilo of enthusiasm and lastly a dusting of tips, Nostalgia and Christmas chit chat.

Advent is a time for celebration but most of all preparation, and what better way to feel Christmassy than sitting down cosy in the evening or to wrap presents with a festive film on. Here are my recommendations of the best way to enjoy the build up on the screen. However, the following is not set in stone and is open to representation. In no particular order (Declan Donnelly’s voice). 

Ahem:

1)      ALL Raymond Briggs films (The Snowman, Father Christmas, The Bear)
2)      Gavin and Stacey Christmas Special
3)      Elf
4)      Santa Clause trilogy
5)      The Holiday
6)      Miracle on 34th Street
7)      The Grinch (Animation version- sorry Jim Carey 
8)      The Muppets- A Christmas Carol
9)      Love Actually
10)   Shrek the Halls
11)   Arthur Christmas
12)   The Polar Express


And if this isn’t enough to kick off your advent, enjoy my playlist ‘Boujie Christmas’ on Spotify ‘elliebottti97’.
