AceShowbiz – “Die Hard” stars Bruce Willis and Bonnie Bedelia have topped a new poll to find the top holiday movie couples.
Over 2,000 film fans took part in Fandango’s new survey for Vudu, and Bruce’s John McClane and his estranged wife, Holly, have come out on top, beating “It’s a Wonderful Life” pair James Stewart and Donna Reed.
“Die Hard” is not your traditional Christmas classic, but it has become a holiday favourite in recent years – and it appears fans love to watch the McClanes find love again during a terrorist takeover of a Los Angeles highrise.
