Summary
Our favorite week of the year - the time when we determine "IF" a movie "IS" a Christmas movie or not. This year season we take on Goodfellas, a brilliant movie that is based on a true story. Directed by Martin Scorcese, we find elements of Christmas - Christmas trees and a bar decorated for Christmas. The infamous Lufthansa Heist (that takes place on December 11,1978)...BUT...is it a Christmas movie or not? Join Michael and Jeffrey as they deliver a definitive answer (while exploring this great film)
