Yeah you grab that coat and go quickly. Just run. Run as hard as you can.

Worst joke ever.

C'mon, you laughed a little bit.

I bet it made you chuckle, and a smile crossed your face.

Around this time of year we see many Christmas movies, such as "Elf", "Bad Santa", "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation", "Home Alone 1 & 2", "Die Hard 1 & 2" etc.

Even movies like "Gremlins" and "Batman Returns" are Christmas movies.

But what movies can you think of where it has Christmas, but isn't a Christmas film?

What I mean is, it is a film not set at Christmas, but covers a period, but there is a scene or two set at Christmas, and other scenes set at other times of the year.

So it is not set at Christmas, but the movie covers a period of time, maybe a year or two years, for example, which includes a scene in the film which occurs during Christmas.

So what movies have a Christmas "scene" or two, but it isn't set solely at Christmas or New Year?

A Simple Plan (there are Christmas trees still up in the living rooms even though it is close to New Year's Day).

The French Connection begins with Gene Hackman undercover on the streets dressed as Santa.
