If Andy Williams is to be believed, we’re getting close to the most wonderful time of the year. While Black Friday madness, frigid temperatures, and dreadful seasonal ditties like “It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year” in regular radio rotation might have us thinking otherwise, it’s hard to hate holiday movies returning to TV programming and movie screens. After Times Cinema and Avalon Theater combined to celebrate “7 Days Of Christmas” last December, the theaters decided to revive more holiday (and kinda-sorta holiday) classics with this year’s “5 Days Of Christmas.”
Between December 3 and December 25, the theaters will host $5 weekend morning screenings of six different movies. The series will culminate with a 10:30 a.m. Christmas Day screening of It’s A Wonderful Life at both sites. Here’s the full schedule and ticket links.
