This 1988 film is anything but “comfortable,” but it still makes the list. It stars Bruce Willis, whose character John McClane visits his estranged wife in a skyscraper in Los Angeles and is caught there during a terrorist takeover. It happens during a Christmas party, which is why some consider it to be part of the Christmas movie genre. (This categorization has been debated for years.) The film is another one starring Alan Rickman, who plays the villain Hans Gruber. It is considered the film that made Bruce Willis famous.

Starring Cameron Diaz, Jude Law, Kate Winslet, Jack Black and Rufus Sewell, “The Holiday” was released in 2006 and tells the story of two women angry about ex-partners who swap homes for Christmas – one in Los Angeles and the other in England. On their travels they both meet new men. The “cozy Christmas spirit” is strong here: Winslet’s character owns such an idyllic house, complete with a small picket fence and constantly surrounded by light snow, that memes are still made about it.
