for the holidays..."</p><p>There's something about the winter holidays that makes us yearn to return home, whether physically, to visit friends and loved ones, or to metaphorically revisit a place and time in our lives that holds special meaning to us, a place of comfort and warmth, where everyone is just a little bit happier, a little bit more giving. Many of the best movies about the holidays help us recapture those warm feelings of home, and they are especially important to us when we're faced with the harsh realities of modern life, when jobs are scarce and the nightly news is filled with stories of tragedy and heartache.  Pour yourself a mug of thick, rich eggnog or a nice Manischewitz wine, snuggle up on the couch and help us select the best "Home for the Holidays" movies.</p><p><a href="http://www.reelz.com/top-10/9389/top-10-best-winter-holidays-movies" class="more">Rate the Top 10 Best Winter Holidays Movies >></a></p><br><br><a href="http://www.reelz.com/countdown/"  class="show-banner thecountdown">merry movies and more<p>Friday 12:00p ET / 9:00a PT</p></a></a></p>                        <div class="clear"></div>                                             <cite>Posted 12.19.12 by BrentJS</cite>                <ul class="related"><li><a href="http://www.reelz.com/movie/173682/its-a-wonderful-life/"><nobr>It's a Wonderful Life</nobr></a> </li><li><a href="http://www.reelz.com/movie/185588/a-christmas-story/"><nobr>A Christmas Story</nobr></a> </li><li><a href="http://www.reelz.com/movie/185805/miracle-on-34th-street/"><nobr>Miracle on 34th Street</nobr></a> </li><li><a href="http://www.reelz.com/movie/150136/home-alone/"><nobr>Home Alone</nobr></a> </li><li><a href="http://www.reelz.com/movie/165501/love-actually/"><nobr>Love Actually</nobr></a> </li><li><a href="http://www.reelz.com/movie/153670/elf/"><nobr>Elf</nobr></a> </li><li><a href="http://www.reelz.com/movie/156328/the-polar-express/"><nobr>The Polar Express</nobr></a> </li><li><a href="http://www.reelz.com/movie/165042/how-the-grinch-stole-christmas/"><nobr>How the Grinch Stole Christmas</nobr></a> </li><li><a href="http://www.reelz.com/movie/191152/scrooged/"><nobr>Scrooged</nobr></a> </li><li class="last"><a href="http://www.reelz.com/show/140/the-countdown-on-reelz/"><nobr>The Countdown on Reelz</nobr></a> </li></ul><div class="clear"></div>                                </li>                     <li class="row">                                        <a href="http://www.reelz.com/movie-news/15381/top-10-best-dance-movies/">                    <img class="blog-image-top" alt="top-10-best-dance-movies" src="http://cache.Reelz.com/assets/content/blogimages/DirtyDancingTop10.jpg" />                </a>                                    <h3>                <a href="http://www.reelz.com/movie-news/15381/top-10-best-dance-movies/">Top 10 Best Dance Movies</a>            </h3>            <p><p class="subhead">"Oh, them.

In fact, the enduring popularity of Westerns owes a great deal to Italian director <a href="http://www.reelz.com/person/220156/sergio-leone/">Sergio Leone</a>, who not only introduced the world to a then-unknown squinty-eyed TV actor named <a href="http://www.reelz.com/person/69858/clint-eastwood">Clint Eastwood</a>, but started a craze with his "Spaghetti Westerns" that resulted in more than 600 Westerns being produced in Europe between 1960 and 1980 while American movie studios slowed down or stopped producing Westerns altogether.</p><p>Whatever the origin of the movie or the nationality of the director behind the camera, a good Western is one that transports us back to a wild, dangerous time, to a place where the people are nearly as harsh as the landscape and there were still amazing discoveries to be made by those with an adventurous spirit. Help us choose those movies that deserve to be called Westerns, those with true grit.</p><p><a href="http://www.reelz.com/top-10/9383/top-10-best-western-movies/" class="more">Rate the Top 10 Best
