It’s worth saying up top: The best winter movies aren’t necessarily about the holidays. In the weirdly inert week between Christmas Day and New Year’s, it’s perfectly possible to watch something that’s wintry and fun but completely unrelated to Santa Claus or Hanukkah gelt or poinsettias or presents. And you’re not even being Grinch-y if you do: There are winter-set movies out there that are also just really good movies, full stop. Here, some of our favorites:
Dr. Zhivago (1965)
One of David Lean’s undisputed masterworks, starring Omar Sharif, Julie Christie, Geraldine Chaplin, and some very plush outerwear. Hunker down with something warm to drink, and let this epic’s three-plus-hour runtime sprawl like a remote Russian snowscape.
McCabe & Mrs. Miller (1971)
