Every good Christmas contains its fair share of movie watching, and every person has their own favourite Christmas movies.
Most of the time these movies are thought to be festive because they’re set in the holiday season, or simply because they capture the Christmas spirit.
But sometimes our festive favourites are only Christmassy because of the time of year at which we watch them, while others that are set during the holidays aren’t really Christmas films at all.
With that in mind, here are our 8 favourite Christmas films that aren’t really about Christmas at all:
1. Die Hard
2. The Sound of Music
3. Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory
4. Batman Returns
5. Gremlins
7. Lethal Weapon
8. Casablanca
