How to make the perfect Christmas film, from the man behind Home Alone & Christmas Chronicles 2

10/10 (Would Recommend)

We guarantee there's not a single person reading this that won't have had their lives improved by today's guest. Chris Columbus' filmography reads like a list of childhood memories - From writing 'The Goonies' and 'Gremlins', discovering and directing Macaulay Culkin in the Home Alone movies and then enchanting a whole new generation with the first three Harry Potter movies - it's pretty safe to say, he's a flipping Christmas filmmaking genius. So to celebrate his latest - 'The Christmas Chronicles 2' arriving on Netflix, get those headphones on and prepare for an unexpectedly emotional cinematic masterclass.

As well as 'The Christmas Chronicles 2' the shows discussed are :

• Dance Dreams Hot Chocolate Nutcracker
• Stepmom
• Hillbilly Elegy

Each week join hosts and IRL friends Tolani Shoneye (of The Receipts podcast fame) and Gena-mour Barrett (who works for Netflix) as they discuss what they're watching, and what they think * you * should be watching.
