In my opinion, that’s also the earliest you should put up Christmas decorations or be assaulted by Christmas songs in stores. Advent is also a time to watch Christmas movies! These days that mostly means Christmas RomComs, a uniquely American genre. My guest Alan Mattli and I have watched a number of these movies, so listen to us be delighted and appalled in equal measure. We also briefly talk about our favourite Christmas movies of the non RomCom variety We watched: HAPPIEST SEASON: More Tragedy than Comedy? (09:08) LOVE HARD: Topical five years ago. (19:55) SINGLE ALL THE WAY: When your family ships you and your BFF hard. (31:16) A CASTLE FOR CHRISTMAS: An American saves the Scottish, who wear a surprising number of kilts. (No, this is not BRAVEHEART) (39:08) THE PRINCESS SWITCH 3: ROMANCING THE STAR: When you’re royalty, but also moonlight as cat burglars. (49:36)
