Miracle on 34th Street
Miracle on 34th Street tells the story of Kris Kringle (Edmund Gwenn) who is shocked to learn that the fellow who is to play the role of Santa in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade is drunk. He complains to the event director Doris (Maureen O’Hara), and she convinces Kris to take the man’s place.
Watch it now here.
Kris does such an exceptional job that he is hired to be the Santa during the holiday season at the central Macy’s on 34th Street in New York City. He earns the love of customers by directing them to the best toys for children, including stores that directly competed with Macy’s for holiday sales. He has many fans but like the real Santa, Kris had many doubters. Eventually he loses his temper with one of them, causing a fiasco that will take time and faith to resolve.
