Holiday greetings to all of you from me, Leonard Malton.

This is Malton on movies with Baron Vaughn, Baron being absent today.

But in his place, well, not in his place, but not even in his chair.

Is Jesse von Barron, Von Malton?

Something like that.

Vaughn.

My daughter, Jesse.

Hello.

Hello back. And we're. My daughter, Jessie. Hello. Hello back.

And we're here to talk about Christmas movies.

And it's an inexhaustible subject because there are so many of them.

And people tend to focus on the same ones.

And for good reason, I mean, there are those old standbys that never disappoint.

It's a wonderful life. Miracle on 34th Street.

Films like that, you know, never grow old.

And that's the true meaning of the word classic.

But we're going to talk about a couple of others that we happen alike.

And some that we think sort of fell by the wayside.

Yeah.

And haven't become the perennials they deserve to be.

Now, I know what you're thinking.

What could two Jews possibly have to say about Christmas movies?
