CHRISTMAS in motion pictures, HOLIDAYS
Abstract

This article focuses on several classic and current films about the holiday season. Christmas time poses an automatic and irresistible pitfall for Hollywood, which falls under annual pressure to deliver at least one reason- for-the-season movie - and to justify any such film as something more substantial than an instance of cynical, timely mass-merchandising. Many are called, but few are chosen. The motion pictures thus motivated over the long haul tend not to become acknowledged classics that will bear revisiting. Such worthy exceptions as Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful Life (1946), two versions of Dickens' A Christmas Carol (1938 and 1953) and Jean Shepherd and Bob Clark's A Christmas Story (1983) also transcend their built-in seasonal bias; they are holiday films capable of making any day of the year feel like Christmas. A come-lately entry, Terry Zwigoff's harshly conceived Bad Santa (2003), seemed a mere shock-value throwaway on first blush but has aged well over the short haul, thanks to Billy Bob Thornton's heartbreaking impersonation of a Christmas-exploiting career criminal who finds himself drawn to the side of the angels. One probably should not mention Bad Santa in the same breath with It's a Wonderful Life or Mr. Dickens' Christmas Carol, but all pivot on the urgent conflicts of disappointment and temptation as film historian David Thomson crystallized the quandary that James Stewart confronts in Wonderful Life. It will be interesting to see how the historical consensus shapes up on the new entries such as Joe Roth's Christmas with the Kranks and Bob Zemeckis' The Polar Express, which fare unevenly well at transplanting the spiritual essence of the holiday into the realm of commercial entertainment. Both deal with crisis-of-faith issues that practically cry out for a sharper examination, but neither can be expected to probe in the context of PG-rated, family-friendly fare.
