Holiday Movies From Around the World6 of 10
Nativity!, Nativity 2: Danger in the Manger!, and Nativity 3: Dude, Where's My Donkey?
United Kingdom, 2009, 2012, and 2014
A children's Nativity play hardly seems like rich enough source material for a single full-length movie, but the Nativity! series proves that it's possible to make a trilogy about elementary school pageants. The child-friendly films each feature a different well-known actor — Martin Freeman, David Tennant and Martin Clunes respectively — as music teachers whose attempts to produce a Nativity play go astray. They're silly, irreverent, and filled with original songs. Parents looking for holiday films that aren't overly sentimental may find the play's the thing.
