Ranking The Men of Classic Holiday Movies

It’s the moooost wonderful tiiiime of the year! It’s the time of the year when you can watch old movies and oogle men who are probably deceased at this point and think to yourself, “they just made em better back then.” Ok, maybe not but these dreamboats from another era make Christmas one of my favorite times of the year. Let’s look at some of my favorites and some classics…

Bing Crosby

It’s just something about those eyes, am I right? And let’s not even begin on the stone cold fox that is Rosemary Clooney next to Bing.

Even though they make him and our next fave holiday man, Danny Kaye, wear these super fabulous Santa costumes, those ol blue eyes make up for it.

Danny Kaye

So Danny Kaye is usually the side kick in most of these flicks but he’s clearing the funny guy, the one you might not be attracted to at first but wins you in the end with his witty charm and banter. You know the ones. The BEST ones.

Fred Astaire

Ok, so Fred Astaire kind of looks like your friends weirder older brother, but damn when this boy starts dancing, you forget the dumbo eats, the 5-head and the fact he probably smelled like tater tots. Fred’s also in the holiday movies classic, Holiday Inn with the aforementioned Bing Crosby and performs one of the best dance numbers of any of the movies listed here. For those reasons alone, I can definitely overlook the tater tot thing. This once.

Jimmy Stewart

I’ve probably said it before here on TN and if you know my IRL than you know I have a thing for Mr. James Stewart. Big time. Even though the movie, It’s A Wonderful Life makes me cry like a baby, and I just want George Bailey to make it, I soldier through because he is THE best.

Seriously, I couldn’t decide on which photo to use so I just said, why the heck not?

I cannot.

Shut your face!

Chevy Chase

Chevy Chase aka Clark Griswald is totally for you if you’re into that suburban, Chicago Dad type. KIDDING. But really he is worthy of a spot on this list because of his love for his family. Anyone who is that devoted and just wanted to give his family a “good, old fashioned family Christmas” deserves a spot on this list. And it’s one of my favorite movies.

Ok, I’m off to watch Christmas Vacation and White Christmas again and eat leftovers. Maybe if there are tissues around, I’ll watch my boo in It’s A Wonderful Life.
