11) LITTLE WOMEN
Director: Mervyn LeRoy
Actors: June Allyson, Elizabeth Taylor, Janet Leigh,
Margaret O'Brien, Peter Lawford, Mary Astor
Year: 1949
A once-prominent family, comprised of four daughters, struggles during Christmas, but still manages to help others and enjoy the holidays. This movie has been made several times (most notably in 1994 with Winona Ryder and Susan Sarandon), but this is the very best version, mainly because of spunky actor June Allyson as 'Jo' and a uniquely hilarious performance by Elizabeth Taylor as 'Amy'.
