A poll of Britons about the country’s favourite Christmas movie has revealed that Home Alone is the top festive film. The 1990 movie, starring Macaulay Culkin, was supported by 20 per cent of respondents. This was followed by Love Actually (nine per cent), It’s a Wonderful Life (eight per cent), Elf (seven per cent) and The Muppets Christmas Carol (also seven per cent). Debate also ensued about the action hit Die Hard, starring Bruce Willis. Of the respondents, 44 per cent said it is not a Christmas film while 38 per cent defended its festive credentials.
