3. O Come O Come Emmanuel
4. Little Drummer Boy
5. Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

1. The Usual Suspects
2. The X-men movies
3. Ocean’s Eleven
4. Crash
5. Pulp Fiction
Also The Lord of the Rings movies and many more…it depends what your definition of “ensemble” is and what types of movies we’re talking about. Too hard, it’s too hard. (Said like Phoebe when she’s trying to knit.)

2. O Holy Night

4. The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)
