Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Whether we love it or hate it, Christmas has always played a special role in the cinema, and Christmas movies like It's a Wonderful Life and Miracle on 34th Street have a special place in popular affections. Christmas at the Movies takes a good look at these popular films, decoding the messages they convey about popular preoccupations and attitudes and about the different societies that produce them. Written in an entertaining and illuminating style, this book gives a brand new view of Christmas and its rituals.

Rated by buyers -
Okay - probably my bad for not really reading through the description in-depth but this is NOT a book of images of Christmas in the movies - it's more a discusion of those movies. There are limited photos of course -- but not what you would expect from a book with this title. I sent it back before reading because I was interested in more of a photo book so I can't judge the overall content but do want other potential buyers to know what the book is really about.
