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

Format:DVD
I hestitate to buy this dvd because I bought the vhs thinking i was getting the original theatrical release. I didn't. I got the version I see on TNT every Thanksgiving. The version that is cut up from years past. People always write that the part they love is when Maureen O'Hara and John Payne find Kris's cane by the fire place in the house for sale. For me the part that makes the movie is always cut. Tommy Mera is just done with his testimony in court and asks Kris on his way out of court for an offical football helmut and Kris says OK. After the happy resolution of the trail Maureen O'Hara ask Kris to dinner party, but Kris says it is Christmas Eve. The next scene should be the Mera house Christmas morning and Tommy getting his football helmut and mom and dad saying I didn't get it while Tommy is wearing this over sized football helmut. Until I see a completely restored version I will not buy the dvd.

This movie is one of the greatest Christmas stories ever! This was so entertaining that I was laughing for weeks. It may seem like a fairy tale, but it teaches good morals. Who says Santa Claus is not real? I recommend for everyone to watch this movie at Christmas time or any other time of the year. The newer version of the movie is also good, but the two are quite different. The other version makes some good points, but I like the part of this movie about the postal service.

This is my favourite version of this story,even though I grew up watching both the newer colour version as well. It is one of the sweetest and most innocent Christmas movies out there!! I so glad I could get it now that they aire it so little on t.v. The acting is very good, and not stiff like in a lot of older movies, and the end has me grinning every time. If you really do, deep down, beleive in Santa Claus, then this is the movie for you.

Miracle on 34th Street
I always prefer the colurized version but it was widescreen, giving it a mor clear & sharp picture to watch compared to a regular DVd.

Is there a Santa ?
As a child this movie helped with the age old "is there really a Santa Claus" question, by putting it all into context with a more modern age. Read more

We loved the movie. Now we don't have to wait for it to be on TV. We can watch it when and as often as we want. Delivery time was excellent.

Gift for Mom
Bought this as a gift for my mother and she loved it. She likes the originals of these movies - as she is in her seventies and it reminds her of when she was a kid.
