Happy New Year! Here is the winner of Holiday Movie Bracket...

 Happy New Year!


Thank you for participating in the DGN FOFA 2020 Holiday Movie Bracket! I hope your family had as much fun as mine and perhaps discovered or rediscovered a new movie.  My children finally agreed to watch Miracle on 34th Street without complaint! 

Overall, we had more than 75 people voting in the final from New York to California. After 11 days of voting and 32 movies, the winner, the best Holiday Movie of All Time is... It's a Wonderful Life! 

Congratulations to Holiday Bracket winners, Chris Waden and Susan Robinson who both tied with a total of 132 points.  The attached file lists the final point standings.

While 2020 was an extraordinary year and lived largely apart, there was much that brought us together.  Thank you again for participating in the 2020 Holiday Movie Bracket.  Cheers to you, to your families, and cheers to new beginnings.
