The original 1947 version of this Valentine Davies story follows the misadventures of Kris Kringle (Edmund Gwenn) as he gets a job playing Santa Claus at Macy's department store in New York City. Natalie Wood is the little girl who tells him she doesn't believe in Santa, and Maureen O'Hara and John Payne are the couple who help Kris through a trial in which he must prove he's the jolly fellow from the North Pole. A sweet movie and perennial Christmas favorite, this is one of those movies that gets under your skin and must be revisited every so often. --Tom Keogh

Korina
This is a wonderful Christmas movie. If you love old movies this is a perfect one to get.

Miracle Still Shines
I watched the original black and white version. It looks and sounds great. I didn't buy the video for the special features, so I didn't pay much attention to them.

I would recommend Miracle on 34th Street to everyone, young, old, or in between.

Great Old Standard
This product contains both an original black and white and a colorized copy of the original Miracle on 34th Street. Personally I feel that colorization is a major travistry but.. The black and white original is the cleanest, clearest copy of this classic that I have seen in years. The original cast is so good that there have been several remakes all of which were a waste of time. This is the definitive copy of a timeless story.
