Its a wonderful movie, by the way. I'm not slamming it. I'm just having a hard time correlating the movie with the season.
In the UK there are two X-Mas movie traditions - the Bond film and The Great Escape. You are guaranteed at least one James Bond movie on X-Mas day and The Great Escape is shown near to or on X-Mas day. I'm not sure when the tradition started, but anybody 30+ in the UK is familiar with this scheduling.
