Well a list of 25 by a web / newspaper takes out the low hanging fruit.

Two that I did not see that are quite good (and b&w) would be:
How can anything be bad with Joseph Cotton? Yes it is a bit of a WWII propaganda film, but I really liked the plot and basic premise of the movie. Shirley Temple was wasted though.
Yes, how about a James Stewart movie?? And not "It's a Wonderful Life"? This movie has a solid cast also deals with some real life issues. Btw -- if you go to Internet Movie Database and type in the search for James Stewart you will have lots of choices and not all for the actor.
So what are your choices??? Do not forget to check out the low hanging fruit link as well.

Love Actually is my favourite Christmas flick. I know its fromage, but its good fromage.

The Santa Clause with Tim Allen and Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch stole Christmas are my favs. They were on the list so I'm no help.

A Christmas Carol with Alastair Sim as Scrooge.

Re: Christmas movie suggestion and recommendation thread 2010
I almost forgot -- Bell Book and Candle
James Stewart, Kim Novak, Jack Lemmon, Ernie Kovacks, Hermione Gingold and Pyewacket or "pye" the cat / familiar
With a cast like that in a story about witches and Christmas -- how can you go wrong?
btw -- it is not even B&W and I love it.

Children of Men. Released on December 25 a few years back is a modern retelling of the Nativity, where an unwedded woman with a miraculous conception and birth is to be protected by quasi-stranger to save all mankind, partially from itself.

Re: Christmas movie suggestion and recommendation thread 2010
Oh man, I've seen that movie, at least the MST3K version. It's awful and incoherent throughout but sure is hilarious. Have at least a few beers before viewing.

Re: Christmas movie suggestion and recommendation thread 2010
Blackadder's Christmas Carol - Ebeneezer Blackadder is the kindest man in England, giving everything he owns, his turkey, presents, all the profits from his moustache shop and his Christmas twig, to the poor. He is visited by the ghost of Christmas past who shows him his evil ancestors at Christmas, which convinces him that being mean results in happiness, here meaning money, and a turkey so big it must have been rogered by an omnibus!
Bitter is the wind tonight,
it stirs up the white-waved sea.
I do not fear the coursing of the Irish sea
by the fierce warriors of Lothlind.
