<p>Lord Attenborough&#8217;s heart-warming portrayal of Santa was the greatest movie Father Christmas of all time, according to film fans.</p>
<p>The actor&#8217;s performance as Kris Kringle in the 1994 remake of Miracle On 34th Street beat the likes of Tim Allen and Tom Hanks to the top spot.</p>
<p>Billy Bob Thornton&#8217;s drunken conman character from Bad Santa was an unlikely runner-up in the poll by film rental service Lovefilm.</p>
<p>Billy Bob &#8211; nominated for a Golden Globe award for his part in the film &#8211; is the north-polar opposite of the classic cuddly Claus, dressing as Santa to rip off department stores.</p>
<p>Fictional character Jack Skellington, voiced by Danny Elfman and Chris Sarandon in The Nightmare Before Christmas, managed to claim sixth place, while Jim Carrey&#8217;s portrayal from How The Grinch Stole Christmas and Tom Hanks&#8217;s interpretation in The Polar Express tumbled down the chimney into seventh and eighth positions.</p>
<p>Fliss White, head of brand marketing at Lovefilm, said: &#8220;While he may have a reputation for being a bad boy, Billy Bob Thornton has proven he can be a good movie Santa.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s great to see a mix of traditional Clauses alongside edgier actors in the top 10.&#8221;</p>
