Arguably the greatest Christmas film of all time (sorry Die Hard), Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful Life perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the holiday. George Bailey (James Stewart, never better) is a small-town businessman whose life did not play out as intended. Having fallen into deep trouble, and realising that he's given up on his dreams to help others, George contemplates suicide. Right as he prepares to jump off a bridge, his guardian angel (Henry Travers) intervenes. In an effort to save this desperate man, the angel shows George what his town would be like if he'd never been born. We won't spoil how the story ends, but we guarantee there won't be a dry eye in your home after watching this magical classic. Best of all, it's available to stream on Stan in glorious 4K Ultra HD!

An Australian family favourite, Red Dog tells the heartwarming true story of a delightful pooch that united an entire community while roaming the Outback looking for his actual owner. The dog brings people together everywhere he goes – some people find love, others find themselves. Starring Josh Lucas and Rachael Taylor, Red Dog is a beautiful movie that the whole family will enjoy. Though the dog is red, this is a true-blue Aussie classic.
