Let the magic of the holiday season begin…

It's Christmas season, and while a Christmas tree, matching sweaters, a cup of hot cocoa and a lot of gifts are pre-requisites to beginning the festive season, there is one more thing that is just as important: Christmas movies. The sweet, heartwarming kind, set against the backdrop of a snow-covered town, with magic in the air and love at every corner, these movies make your toes curl and make you want to be a part of the plot and experience a magical moment like that in the movies. From The Christmas Prince to The Princess Switch, there is something so captivating about Christmas movies that keeps you hooked one after another, turning your movie nights into a marathon where you just can't stop binging on the holiday magic.
While you've most probably already rewatched How the Grinch Stole Christmas to mark the beginning of this festive season, here are some of the most magical Christmas movies to add to your watch list.
