Celebrate the Holidays at the Cinema as Fathom Events Presents a Variety of Cheer-Filled Offerings for Everyone

This winter, Fathom Events presents moviegoers with a lineup of holiday favorites in movie theaters nationwide: Die Hard's 30th anniversary; a new adult-themed holiday tradition with A Bad Mom's Christmas; the enchanting, music-filed Buttons: A New Musical Film, the evergreen classic White Christmas; two heartwarming films in Jim Henson's Holiday Special; and beloved holiday favorite The Nutcracker, performed by the Bolshoi Ballet.

Full details of Fathom's holiday-themed offerings follow:

• Die Hard: Sunday, November 11, 2018 and Wednesday, November 14, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. local time.

  • Fans of Die Hard may never agree about the film's status as a holiday movie (as opposed to a summer blockbuster with a Christmas setting), but millions of moviegoers do agree that there's endless appeal in the swaggering, wisecracking John McClane (Bruce Willis) and his single-handed effort to protect a 35-story high-rise from a team of terrorists led by suave Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman). The iconic '80s action movie marks its 30th anniversary and will screen with new pre- and post-film commentary by TCM Primetime Host Ben Mankiewicz as part of the TCM Big Screen Classics series.

• A Bad Mom's Christmas: Thursday, December 6, 2018 at 7:30 p.m. local time.

  • Moviegoers are invited to a wild, one-night Christmas PARTY ON December 6, as the Fathom Spotlight Series presents STXfilms' hilariously inappropriate comedy hit "A Bad Moms Christmas" in movie theaters nationwide. A box-office hit when it was released last year, the film will be back on the big screen to create a new holiday tradition fashioned especially for grown-ups. The return of "A Bad Moms Christmas" will be accompanied by a brand-new "blooper reel," created during the making of the film, which will bring even more raucous laughter to the evening.

• Buttons: A New Musical Film: Saturday, December 8, 2018 at 12:55 p.m. local time.

• Buttons, a new musical fairy tale film from creator director Tim Janis takes you on a journey to discover that sometimes believing can be the greatest adventure of all! During a time of robber barons, mills, and rising industry, two orphan children meet two unexpected visitors (Dick Van Dyke & Angela Lansbury) who turn the tide of events and change their lives forever. Includes a special tribute to legendary dancer, director and choreographer Gene Kelly, hosted by Kelly's wife and biographer Patricia Ward Kelly. Join Patricia as she shares intimate, behind-the-scenes stories about some of her husband's most popular and universally beloved movies.

  • Two talented song-and-dance men (Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye) team up after the war to become one of the hottest acts in show business. One winter they join forces with a sister act (Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen) and trek to Vermont for a white Christmas. The result is stuff dreams are made of. This two-day event is part of the TCM Big Screen Classics series and includes exclusive insight from TCM Primetime host Ben Mankiewicz.

This first-ever big screen presentation brings together these two holiday classics - each recently remastered - as well as an all-new featurette, "Memories of the Jug-Band," with a surprise celebrity guest, along with a special greeting from Cheryl Henson, daughter of Jim Henson and president of the Jim Henson Foundation.

  • Captured live the same day from the Bolshoi Ballet in Moscow, The Nutcracker comes to cinemas across the U.S. On Christmas Eve, Marie's Nutcracker doll magically transforms into a prince, and together their wonderful adventure begins. The Nutcracker invites audiences of all ages on a magical journey, through a world of enchantment, complete with dancing snowflakes and dolls that have come to life, accompanied by Tchaikovsky's beloved score. The TIMELESS holiday classic returns to the Bolshoi stage this December.
