The movies have included some memorable snowmen. Here are some of my favorites.

The Snowman This exquisite wordless story about a boy and a snowman is bittersweet (their time together is limited) but exhilarating.

Frozen Olaf is the most adorable movie snowman ever, with a disposition that can only be described as sunny.

“Frosty the Snowman” A classic song inspired a classic animated story about the snowman who began to dance around when that old top hat was put on his head.

Knick Knack This charming short by Pixar shows what happens when a snowman tries to escape his snowglobe.

“The Snowman in July” This 1944 short is about a snowman who, like Olaf, wants to see summer.
