Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

The Holly and the Ivy (1954)

An unhappy family gathers for Christmas. They are comprised of a parson, a rich older widow, a judgmental old woman whose deepest relationship is with her cat, an irresponsible young soldier, a drunk black-sheep young woman with secrets, and a dutiful daughter who longs to be free. 

It's just a bunch of talking and misery.
