Celebrate the Holidays! Great films for the whole family!
It's that time of year when I love to snuggle up with my family and watch all our favorite Christmas movies. On of our family's all time favorite Christmas movies is Home Alone. But there are so many others, many which are being re-released this season on blu-ray.
Synopsis: The Home Alone Collection includes Blu-ray copies of Home Alone and Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.
Home Alone: Accidentally left behind when his parents rush off on their Christmas vacation, eight year old Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) embarks on a hilarious, madcap mission to defend the family home when two bumbling burglars (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern) try to break in - and find themselves tangled in Kevin's bewildering battery of booby traps!
Home Alone 2: Lost in New York: Great news - Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) is spending the holidays in New York City! Bad news - his parents are spending them in Florida! Separated once again from his family, Kevin manages to find food, lodging and fun using his dad's credit card. But his big-spending solo act takes a dangerous turn when the Wet Bandits, Harry and Marv (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern), escape prison and also land in the Big Apple. Now, Kevin must outrun and outprank them again in this high-flying adventure with twice the ingenuity, twice the kid power and twice the laughs as the original!
A Christmas Carol: Academy Award winner George C. Scott gives a powerful performance as Ebenezer Scrooge in this truly heartwarming telling of Charles Dickens' beloved drama. At first, miserable, greedy old Scrooge can't tolerate the revelry of Christmas, much less comprehend its meaning. But visits from his former business partner's ghost and three cautionary specters from the past, present and future force the man to soul-search. Grappling with his own losses, Scrooge recognizes the repercussions of heartlessness in this classic, timeless story that also stars Susannah York and David Warner.
