"Miracle on 34th Street" may be the greatest Christmas movie ever made. It's also may be the most grown up one of all. There aren't any silly cute scenes aimed at a younger audience. No wise cracking kids. It doesn't cheat by playing hit pop Christmas songs. It just tells it's story in a beautifully straightforward way. The way it wraps up it's story is brilliantly clever. Not a dry eye in the house. "Miracle on 34th Street " is so good I can even watch the colorized version without complaining (Although, I much prefer the original B&W version).
