List of mainstream films with skiing scenes
This article is about mainstream films with skiing in them. For the genre of ski bum films, see Ski film.
The following is a list of mainstream films featuring skiing or snowboarding scenes. Skiing has been recorded on film since at least the 1910s, but did not work its way into Hollywood features until the 1930s, when it began to be popular as a leisure activity in the United States. Snowboarding's entry onto the screen paralleled its rise to popularity in the late 1980s and early 90s.
