Every year, holiday Christmas movies tend to come packaged in a red and green container of the same clichés. Either Santa Claus is animated as a real life, jolly purveyor of Christmas cheer, or the movie forgoes the fabled white beard and instead weaves a tacky love story, connecting alienated families, strangers and John Cusack.
And just as with the repetitive dirge of Christmas music that dominates radio airwaves starting every November, we generally go along with it, attributing it to being “part of the Christmas spirit!” But sometimes you need a break. In a year where everything else seems upended and spun on its head, why shouldn’t holiday films? It’s at times like these when you most need to forget about the seriousness of what’s happening in the world and revel in 90 minutes of absurdist humor for absurdist humor’s sake.
