18 of the Best Non-Christmas Christmas Movies (That Aren't ‘Die Hard’)

There is murder in the offing during Christmastime in the old west. In this case, the lawman Morris Stanley gave Charlie Burns a choice: either kill his older brother, wanted for rape and murder, or his younger brother, already in custody for lesser crimes, will be hanged. That decision kicks off a contemplative journey through the outback, one drenched in tremendous performances and style, if not a hint of festive greenery.

Will it be your next holiday classic? It might be too quiet for a sleepy Christmas Day viewing, but it deserves a spot on your holiday watchlist.

Where to watch: Fubo TV, Peacock, The Roku Channel, Vudu, Tubi, Kanopy, Crackle, Pluto TV, and IMDb TV.
