Nothing Says Christmas Like …Crime?: Ce's Holiday Movie Picks
It’s the most wonderful time of the year, but it’s also somehow the busiest and most expensive. So when the day’s over, we need to relax! In the spirit of the holidays we’re already celebrating and those coming up, Team CE shared their go-to films for feeling festive. While some of these are traditional flicks, there was an unexpected theme of crime among the selections. We guess nothing invokes that warm and cheerful feeling like a little lawlessness?
