THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – BEYOND CHRISTMAS (1940)

 

In this charming Christmas movie, George Melton (Harry Carey), Allan Chadwick (C. Aubrey Smith) and Michael O'Brien (Charles Winninger), are the heads of a successful engineering firm.

All three are rich beyond measure but are ultimately lonely, so they invite three strangers to dinner on Christmas Eve.

However only two show up, James Houston (Richard Carlson) and Jean Lawrence (Jean Parker), who fall in love and become friends with their three benefactors.

But tragedy strikes when the three men are killed in a plane crash after which they return to their old home as ghosts.

In the months following the accident, although left financially secure, true love between James and Jean encounters some very rough spots and ultimately it’s left to the ghostly O'Brien to help the young couple.
