Fortress (1986) with Rachel Ward.

Not exactly your typical warm & fuzzy Christmas movie but well done and based on a true story of a Australian school kidnapping, one of the guys involved in the kidnapping claims he is "Father Christmas".

"Scrooged" with Bill Murray is my newest favorite! Used to be "Wonderful Life" til Life got in the Way.
