Klaus

A selfish postman and a quiet toymaker stumble into inventing Christmas, and it is the softest movie Netflix owns. Hand-drawn, a little sad, and the one we put on when the room needs to exhale.

A few already on Netflix
Love Actually
2003
2h 15mR
A pile of London love stories collide at Christmas, some delightful and some that have aged worse than others. Rated R. On Netflix and Peacock. We still put it on, with a little side-eye at a couple of the plots.
The Christmas Chronicles
2018
1h 44mPG
Kurt Russell plays Santa like a rock star who lost his sleigh, and two kids have to help him get it back. It is loud in the best way, and it is still on Netflix.
A Boy Called Christmas
2021
1h 46mPG
A boy goes looking for his father and finds the beginning of Christmas instead. It is a storybook movie, a little dark at the edges, and very kind in the middle.
A Dog's Perfect Christmas
2026
1h 42mPG-13
A family comes apart over the holidays, and a basset hound narrates the long way back together. New on Netflix this November, from the people who wrote A Dog's Purpose. Have the tissues where you can reach them.
Deck the Halls
2006
1h 33mPG
Two neighbors go to war over Christmas lights, and the lights are winning. Matthew Broderick and Danny DeVito, on Netflix. Broad on purpose.
That's the pile.
