Best Christmas movies set in each state

By Reed Gaudens

HOME ALONE - Eight year old Kevin MacAllister (Macaulay Culkin) gets lost in the shuffle as his large, upper-middle class suburban family rushes to make a plane that will ferry them off to their Christmas vacation in France; Kevin, having been banished to an attic room as punishment, is subsequently forgotten. At first this is a dream come true, as for the first time in his young life he has no one to answer to but himself, and he takes full advantage of his newfound freedom, eating junk food and watching late-night horror flicks. But when the bumbling Wet Bandits Harry (Joe Pesci) and Marv (Daniel Stern) target his house for a robbery, Kevin must step up to defend his home; he sets a maze of booby traps so elaborate that only an eight year old imagination could concoct them.

It wouldn’t be Christmas without the classics, and we couldn’t honor holiday movies from every state without them, either. White Christmas stars Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye as singers Bob Wallace and Phil Davis, who join forces with sisters Betty (Rosemary Clooney) and Judy Haynes (Vera-Ellen) to put on a Christmas performance in the rural town of Pine Tree, Vermont. When they arrive in town, the singers discover Gen. Waverly’s (Dean Jagger) country inn has been suffering from financial struggles.

Naturally, the talented foursome decides to do what they do best in order to help the inn get back on its feet and into the Christmas spirit. White Christmas received mostly positive reviews from critics and was a box office hit, making it one of the true-blue American classic Christmas movies. The film featured a new version of Crosby’s Christmas standard “White Christmas,” which was first introduced in his 1942 film Holiday Inn. If you haven’t beheld this iconic holiday treat, it’s time to stop dreaming of a white Christmas and finally have one in Pine Tree, Vermont.
