    Happy Holidays from the Gimme Three Podcast!


    ’Tis the season - not just for the Holiday spirit, but also for love. This week’s episode explores three romantic comedies perfect for the holiday season.


    • First, we gab about one of Bella’s favorites: Nancy Meyers’ cross-pond modern classic The Holiday.
    • Second, the ever-charming Sandra Bullock stars in the high-concept Sleeping Beauty reimagining of While You Were Sleeping.
    • Last and least, we discuss the made-for-TV movie that has the whole world talking, the unauthorized adaptation of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Courtship: Christmas In The Spotlight.


    Throw these films on (or at least the first two) as you snuggle up with your loved one this Christmas. Turn on the fire, and let these romantic films sweep you away.

    The holiday season is upon us, and with it comes the annual debate in the cinephile community. Many a movie aficionado frequently asks, “Is this a Christmas Movie or Not?”


    Well, The Gimme Three Podcast has you covered. On today’s episode, we examine three hotly debated films to answer the burning question once and for all.


    • We start with Billy Wilder’s classic 1960 Romantic Dramedy The Apartment.
    • Next, Christmas time comes to Gotham City in Tim Burton’s sinister sequel, Batman Returns.
    • Finally - the film that seems to spark the most debate about whether or not it is a Christmas film - Die Hard.


    We get to the bottom of all of it. But, of course, we’d love to hear your thoughts as well. After hearing our arguments - what’s your stance? Are these Christmas movies or not?
