Little-Known Facts About Christmas Movies
Christmas movies have been warming hearts for generations, but did you know these fun tidbits?
- It’s a Wonderful Life wasn’t initially a Christmas classic. It bombed at the box office but became a holiday staple years later thanks to public domain airings on TV.
- In Home Alone, the iconic black-and-white gangster movie Kevin watches—Angels with Filthy Souls—wasn’t real. It was created specifically for the film!
- Elf features a scene where Buddy eats gum off a subway railing. That wasn’t scripted; Will Ferrell improvised it on the spot!
- White Christmas (1954) was the first movie ever released in VistaVision, a widescreen format that made it look extra crisp and colorful.
These quirky bits of trivia bring extra charm to the season and remind us why we keep returning to these films year after year.
Lost Treasures: Christmas Titles You’ve Never Seen

Many of these treasures were one-offs, never given a sequel, and some were so special they weren’t even released on DVD.

And for the true enthusiasts, the thrill is in the hunt! Finding these movies on their original VHS format is like rediscovering a piece of Christmas past. The nostalgic hum of the tape rewinding, the grainy glow of a tube TV—it’s all part of the experience.
