Six Christmas Scenes in Non-Christmas Movies

The Potter films throw in a Happy Christmas so consistently ABC Family has piratically christened them official holiday films. That aside, the moment in year one when Daniel Radcliffe breathlessly asks, "I've got presents?" is one of the cutest moments of the series.

Even with Angel so obviously in the Christmas spirit, somehow I don't think RENT will be included on any TV station's holiday line up anytime soon.

I found Mean Girls to be a surprisingly accurate portrait of a modern day high school, until they the plastics started writhing to a Jingle Bell Rock during a school assembly. You can ignore dress code in the crush of school halls, but onstage some kind of school offiical will notice and make you put on a hoodie.

Saved's Christmas moments are a bit scattered but worth mentioning since they include Mary's giant Santa sweatshirts she's for some reason allowed to wear over her uniform, as well as Cassandra's bogus confession she wants a Christmas tree that year instead of a Hanukkah bush.

Here, Christmas is used mainly as a framing device. Look how happy Harry and Sally are, carrying the tree together, and later Sally is so sad carrying the tree alone. But you know in the end, they'll have each other for every future Christmas tree haul.

And if you want a Christmas moment that will leave you sobbing hysterically, you can also play the end of Stepmom and watch a woman dying of cancer give her kids the last Christmas presents she'll ever get them. After that, you might need just one more hour of A Christmas Story.
