Trent family movie traditions
It’s that time of year when the Trent family gets to sit down and watch our traditional movies. The kids are close to being out of school for Christmas break, and myITforum.com “regular” work is winding down. We used to include “It’s a Wonderful Life” as part of our tradition, but that movie really gets annoying after a while, and it doesn’t seem to be the kids’ favorite.
But, there are 2 movies that stand the test of time for the new generation. We take the time to watch these every year.
