Christmas Classic January 6, 2009
Wonderful edition! The television program was nice to see, but it is merely a chopped down redo of the movie, using most of the same script. The acting pales compared to the actual film, but is all right. The colorized version still does not sit well with me, I prefer the original black and white versions of films. All in all, however, this is a great buy!

 A Christmas Classic January 2, 2009
This has long been a favorite of many at Christmas time. It is a great production.
This timeless classic features Edmund Gwenn as Kris Kringle. This kindly old man is employed to play Santa Claus at the Macy's department store in New York. He creates quite a stir in the job and it is apparent that he really believes that he is Santa Claus. Some who do not accept this identity seek to have him committed to a mental facility.
There are some classic courtroom scenes with the presiding judge put in the untenable position of possibly ruling that Kringle is not really St. Nick. He faces great unpopularity even with his own family members, let alone the voters.
This is really a fun flick. It is well done and has some great subplots. Two well known actresses who play in it are Maureen O'Hara and a very young Natalie Wood. If you have not seen it already, you will likely enjoy it. If you have watched it before, this is one that can be pleasantly viewed again.
This 1947 Version is MUCH Better Than the 1994 Version December 25, 2008

The characters and story fidelity are superb in the 1947 movie! The 1994 version pales in comparison.
TIMELESS CLASSIC FILM WITH AN EXCELLENT DVD TREATMENT! December 25, 2008

Well, it's Christmas Eve and I've started my annual Christmas movie marathon. This year, I watched an old favorite 'The Miracle On 34th Street'. The film is as fresh now as it was in it's original release. The film's message about commercialism taking control of the holiday rings truer each passing year!
For those who aren't familiar with this wonderful holiday film, it's at the top of the list of great Christmas films. The cast, script and pacing are perfect. The 2 disc DVD release has commentary by star Maureen O'Hara, AMC Hollywood Back-story, A 45 minute made for TV remake of the film, which is very good and an excellent DVD transfer in both Black & White and Color!
Merry Christmas Everyone!
