Great choics, Karrie!
There is a 1949 film I love (so I know I'm old! ;D) called Come to the Stable with Loretta Young that is very heart warming. And another Young film co starring Cary Grant called The Bishop's Wife. And also Alastair Sim as Scrooge in Christmas Carol. They are all available on vid, so check them out.
To add to the music, Perry Como's rendition of Ave Maria and Pavarotti's O Holy Night are classic.

I also love the Nightmare before Christmas, but I cannot decide if its a Christmas story or Halloween story.
