12 Nights of Christmas
Get into the swing of the festive season with 12 Christmas flicks over 12 nights.
Overview
If your pre-Christmas routine involves watching as many festive flicks as possible, then you might want to head to Cinema Nova between Thursday, December 13 and Monday, December 24. Every evening across the almost two-week period, the picture palace is projecting an Xmas great onto one of its big screens — and letting cinephiles get very merry indeed.
There'll be 12 movies over 12 nights, with the whole program called 12 Nights of Christmas. No matter what type of Christmas film takes your fancy, you'll find it here. Say yippee ki-yay to the season with Die Hard, which kicks off the whole event; delve into the madcap mind of Tim Burton with The Nightmare Before Christmas, his gorgeous stop-motion animation effort; and, of course, revisit the rom-com that everyone either loves or hates, aka Love Actually.
Other movies on the bill include zombie comedy musical Anna and the Apocalypse, perennial favourite It's a Wonderful Life and the 80s fun of Gremlins — plus the Will Ferrell-starring Elf, 90s-style superheroes in Batman Returns, party flick Go and the film everyone adored as a kid, Home Alone. Or, of course, you can say "bah humbug!" to it all with Bad Santa and Scrooged.
