Consider This from NPR - What makes a true Christmas movie?

What makes a movie a Christmas movie?

When the movie Die Hard was released on Blu Ray a few years back, the studio called it "the greatest Christmas story ever told!"

It does take place at an office Christmas party, but is that fact enough to make it a Christmas movie?

What about "Elf," "It's a Wonderful Life" or "Eyes Wide Shut" are those Christmas movies? Yes, right? NPR producer Marc Rivers says, "not so fast."

Just what makes any Christmas movie a true Christmas movie?
