Die Hard (1988) - Welcome To The Party, Pal

Surely this should be shown in the holiday season every bit as much as "It's a Wonderful Life."

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
McClane (Bruce Willis) gets Sgt. Al Powell's (Reginald VelJohnson) attention by throwing a dead body out the window and down onto his police cruiser.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
It's Christmas time in L.A., and there's an employee party in progress on the 30th floor of the Nakatomi Corporation building. The revelry comes to a violent end when the partygoers are taken hostage by a group of terrorists headed by Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman), who plan to steal the 600 million dollars locked in Nakatomi's high-tech safe. In truth, Gruber and his henchmen are only pretending to be politically motivated to throw the authorities off track; also in truth, Gruber has no intention of allowing anyone to get out of the building alive. Meanwhile, New York cop John McClane (Bruce Willis) has come to L.A. to visit his estranged wife, Holly (Bonnie Bedelia), who happens to be one of the hostages. Disregarding the orders of the authorities surrounding the building, McClane, who fears nothing (except heights), takes on the villains, armed with one handgun and plenty of chutzpah. Until Die Hard came along, Bruce Willis was merely that wisecracking guy on Moonlighting. After the film's profits started rolling in, Willis found himself one of the highest-paid and most sought-after leading men in Hollywood.

insist it's not a Christmas movie? The opening scenes are pre-Christmas, and the ending is Christmas.
