I'm trying to come up with a list of movies that take place on holidays, but the holiday itself isn't the focal point or in the title of the movie.
Ex.
Die Hard 1 & 2 - Christmas
Jaws - Fourth of July

Mankind -- that word should have new meaning for all of us today.
We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore.
We will be united in our common interests.
Perhaps its fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution -- but from annihilation.
We're fighting for our right to live, to exist.
And should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice:
"We will not go quietly into the night!
We will not vanish without a fight!
We're going to live on!
We're going to survive!"
Today, we celebrate our Independence Day! | Brings a tear to the eye.
