Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

It's that time of year... looking forward to watching Christmas in Connecticut, It Happened on 5th Avenue, Die Hard etc. Right now in particular, I really need these nostalgic touchstones to keep going. What are your favorite holiday movies?
