Last Christmas

If you do not fancy one of these classic Christmas movies, try Last Christmas, which is in cinemas now. Kate, the main character, has a pretty tragic life, and everything is going wrong until she encounters Tom. A love story that will make you laugh and cry, it is a perfect addition to all the Christmas classics.
