THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER - MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET

 

There have been two versions of Miracle on 34th Street and both are well worth watching.

The 1947 version starred Maureen O'Hara and John Payne with Edmund Gwenn as Kris Kringle while in 1994 there parts were played by Elizabeth Perkins, Dylan McDermott and Richard Attenborough.

It’s the story of a child brought up by her mother not to believe in Santa Claus however the mother unknowingly employs Kris Kringle to be Santa Claus at Macy’s department store.

Eventually he has to go to trial to prove he is the real Santa.

Apart from being hugely enjoyable films they both have in common the fact that the child stole the show in each case.

Natalie Wood in the original and Mara Wilson in the remake, both were a delight.
