The Reel World: The best holiday movies

Traditionalist or non, the debate continues on the best holiday movies. When it comes to binging on holiday movies are you a traditionalist who heads straight for It’s a Wonderful Life, The Christmas Story, Miracle on 34^th Street or Christmas Vacation?

Or do you head down the alternative path to the slightly off kilter renditions of a holiday theme such as Die Hard, Rare Exports, Blast of Silence or even wander into horror with Krampus?

Whatever you like to watch for your holiday enjoyment, we have you covered. Come in and browse our DVD/Blu-Ray selection in the Movies & Music Lounge or browse Hoopla to stream a holiday movie. Hoopla even has a Binge Pass for Hallmark Movies if you want cozy happily ever afters.

Our Kids Library also houses many current and classic children's holiday movies such as A Charlie Brown Christmas, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, How the Grinch Stole Christmas and Emmet Otter's Jug-band Christmas.

If by chance the library doesn't own a favorite of yours, we can still help. Contact our Interlibrary Loan (ILL) department to see if the item you want can be borrowed from another library. ILL is free to those with a library card in good standing.

Happy Holiday’s to all and Die Hard is a Christmas movie.
