Anyone familiar with Dolly Parton (which is pretty much everyone) knows just how lovable of a person she is! The icon has earned the title "Queen of Country" with her everlasting catchy hits, and has graced our screens with plenty of movies that have become some of our all-time favorites! We feel especially lucky to have Dolly in our lives during the holiday season, because she also has so many Christmas songs, holiday musicals, and Christmas movie specials out there. In fact, there are quite a few Dolly Christmas movies worth watching, so we rounded up some of the best.
Christmas movie lovers have a sweet array of options to choose from when it comes to Dolly's Christmas flicks! Those who love a solid musical (and Willie Nelson) need to watch Dolly Parton's Mountain Magic Christmas... like right now! Hallmark Christmas movie fanatics will absolutely love Christmas at Dollywood, which features an all-too-familiar trope: enemies to lovers! Overall, every single one of these movies is great. We know Ree Drummond would agree with that—The Pioneer Woman was practically moved to tears when she virtually met her for the first time! So, scroll through this list during the holiday season and get ready to have a holly Dolly Christmas!
