While not explicitly a Christmas movie, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone has become a popular holiday watch. The film's magical setting and festive scenes in the Great Hall create a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for the season.
Even though they aren\u2019t technically Christmas movies, the Harry Potter film series has become a staple in the holiday viewing season. There\u2019s nothing better than enjoying a solid movie marathon, and stepping into the Wizarding World and strolling into The Great Hall in all of its Christmassy goodness takes it to an entirely different level.
Perhaps that\u2019s why the movie that started it all — Harry Potter and the Sorcerer\u2019s Stone — is currently casting a spell on Max\u2019s Top 10. Sure, National Lampoon\u2019s Christmas Vacation and A Christmas Story may seem like the logical content to indulge in during the week between Christmas and the New Year, but a Harry Potter marathon will give you not one, not two, but eight feature-length bits of entertainment. Setting up the lengthy tale and journey that\u2019s to come, filmmaker Chris Columbus\u2019 Harry Potter and the Sorcerer\u2019s Stone introduces audiences to the titular character, played by Daniel Radcliffe. On his eleventh birthday, the young boy discovers that he hails from a lineage of wizards and has impressive abilities of his own. Against his aunt and uncle\u2019s wishes, he\u2019s shuttled off to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where he learns alongside other blossoming magic wielders. Along the way, he learns more about his deceased parents and even some unbelievable truths about himself. \u2018Harry Potter and the Sorcerer\u2019s Stone\u2019s Ties to the Holiday Season Close So, what makes Harry Potter and the Sorcerer\u2019s Stone a Christmas movie? To be honest, nothing fully cements it as such. The film, like the others to follow, follows a year in the life of Harry and the rest of the pupils and faculty at Hogwarts. But in the first installment, there are some unforgettable and magical bits of Christmas celebrations that go down mainly in the school\u2019s Great Hall, where the students and teachers gather to enjoy their meal
