Eccentric Star

 

Every year Heather tries to watch a steady diet of Halloween movies in October and Christmas movies in December. She usually succeeds, even though it means screening a few duds like Spooky Buddies and Call Me Claus. She’d like to do the same with November, but there just aren’t enough Thanksgiving movies out there to fill a month. Off the top of her head, she can only think of A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and Free Birds. I’m going to pretend I’m eleven months ahead of the game (and not a month too late). Here’s my list for next year: Miracle on 34th Street (1947 and 1994), Tower Heist, You’ve Got Mail, Sweet November, Paul Blart: Mall Cop, Chicken Run, Home for the Holidays, Addams Family Values, Hannah and Her Sisters, and Grumpy Old Men. It’s only two weeks’ worth, and there are a few Heather won’t like. But if I’ve gotta watch Spooky Buddies and Call Me Claus, she owes me.
