We ventured in a one horse open Prius to my parents house for Thanksgiving and wouldn't ya know it? They have a TV and the internet! And we could watch a Christmas movie. THE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER _________________ THE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER (1940) synopsis from Rotten Tomatoes:  Alfred Kralik (James Stewart) and Klara Novak (Margaret Sullavan) are employees at Matuschek and Company, a general store in Budapest. Klara and Alfred are constantly at odds with each other, butting heads and disagreeing on almost everything. Both are enamored of their respective pen pals, who serve as welcome distractions in their lives. Little do they know, they are each the other's pen pal and, despite outward differences, have unwittingly fallen in love through their letters. _________________ The movies we're going to watch, probably (in no particular order) MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET (1947) THE PREACHER’S WIFE (1996) MICKEY’S CHRISTMAS CAROL (1983) BEST MAN HOLIDAY (2013) SCROOGED (1988) JOYEUX NOËL ("Merry Christmas") (2005) WHITE CHRISTMAS (1954) ANNA AND THE APOCALYPSE (2017) THE BISHOP’S WIFE (1947) CHRISTMAS IN CONNECTICUT (1945) WHITE REINDEER (2013) A CHRISTMAS TALE (2008) COMFORT AND JOY (1984) LITTLE WOMEN (2019) MARCH OF THE WOODEN SOLDIERS (1934) REMEMBER THE NIGHT (1940) TANGERINE (2015) CAROL (2015) Movies watched so far (in a particular order) WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING (1995) DR.
