Your Pittsburgh Holiday Movie Watch List

About this episode

Does "Die Hard" count as a Christmas movie? We're stretching the definition of "Pittsburgh holiday movie" to its limits and talking about the many films loosely connected to our city this festive season. Host Megan Harris is with Josh Axelrod, a founding member of the Pittsburgh Film Critics Association and director of communications at The Lindsay Theater and Cultural Center, to talk about the most famous holiday movies, the one corner of Sewickley popping up over and over in Hallmark films, and why one small part of "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" makes it a Christmas watch.  The Lindsay Theater is screening holiday classics from December 19-25. Check out the full schedule here.
