I just discovered it’s a completely different, classical actor named #NigelTerry. That’s embarrassing. #TCMParty

The family has retired early and I'm enjoying my favorite Christmas movie...

Cursory googling doesn't seem to support that, it seems.

Two films that I love are set in December. They offer a different flavor than the average holiday fare: BEWARE, MY LOVELY (1952) and THE LION IN WINTER (1968). The latter is probably my all-time favorite film. I highly recommend both! #Film #Cinema #Drama #Noir #Historical #BewareMyLovely #TheLionInWinter

45 followers · 248 posts · Server mstdn.socialSeriously, #TheLionInWinter is a #ChristmasMovie. It is about a family who get together over #Christmas, have a giant fight, discuss their kids dating life, and resolve to never have anything more to do with each other.... until it is time for the next family gathering.
How is that not Christmassy?

Oh, what the heck, I'll watch both. It is #Christmas after all. Yes, The Lion In Winter is a #ChristmasMovie.
