Quick holiday movie trivia question
Hey all,
Wondering if anyone can tell me what the original versions of Miracle on 34th Street, It's a Wonderful Life and White Christmas have in common. Looking for an answer other than "they're all Christmas movies."
It's for a trivia contest at work and the closest thing I can come up with is that they were all nominated for Oscars.
Any thoughts?

These are all guesses, but I'm going under the assumption that the answer is tricky because the link between the three is something un-Christmasy, or unlikely considering the subject of the film:
1. They were all filmed in the summer
2. None of them feature real snow
3. They were all writen and/or directed by Jews (was Capra Jewish?)

It looks like the OP has a blog. Maybe we could contact him through that and see if he ever go an answer?

How did Walt Disney get banned with only 1 post? Or was it an Alias account?
