I grew up in the '50's and back then, it would have been considered inappropriate for a child to address an adult by their first name. On the other hand, as the adult becomes a "friend of the family," it would also seem odd to keep calling 'em Mr., Mrs. or Miss. So "aunt" or "uncle" as in "Uncle Fred" was a sort of honorary kinship. (I thought I had a big family until I got old enough to realize most of these people were not really related. And my mother's cousin we called "Uncle Bill" for the same reason.

The two biggest department stores at the time were Macy's and Gimbel's, both with their flagship store on 34th St. near each other. Their business rivalry was legendary, summed up in the common phrase "Would Macy's tell Gimbel's?" So I think more than the proving Santa was real, and that of putting the spirit of Christmas over commercialism, to the audiences back then, the scene of the head of Macy's and Gimbel's shaking hands and sort of burying the hatchet was the REAL miracle indicated by title.

"Faith is believing things when common sense tells you not to. Don't you see? It's not just Kris that's on trial, it's everything he stands for. It's kindness and joy and love and all the other intangibles." Fun Fact: Unbeknownst to most parade watchers, Edmund Gwenn played Santa Claus in the actual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade held on November 28, 1946. Lost In Translation Fact: In the untranslated dialogue with the Dutch girl, Kris asks her what she wants for Christmas. She says she wants nothing, telling him she got her gift by being adopted by her new mother. Retailers United Fact: Both Macy's and Gimbel's were approached by the producers for permission to have them depicted in the film. Both wanted to see the finished film first before they gave approval. If either had refused, the film would have had to been extensively edited and re-shot to eliminate the references. Fortunately, at the test viewing both were pleased with the film and gave their permission.

New subscriber here! Just getting caught up on your earlier videos. I wanted to add just a little historical context to the house. In the late ‘40s, after the war, there was a huge housing shortage, with the combination of returning GIs getting married and popping out Baby Boomers and the lack of existing housing stock due to the Depression and then the war. A house like the one at the end, in an older suburban neighborhood with grown trees and not an insta-suburb that were popping up all over, was like finding gold. In the minds of many home buyers at the time, it must have really proved that Kris was Santa!!

Well, not to split hairs, but "technically" the issue wasn't to prove that he is "Kris Kringle" (Chris Cringle?), but to prove that that he is "Santa Claus". Odds are his name actually WAS (or COULD be) Kris Kringle. And he MIGHT even have had identifying papers to prove that. But proving that you are SANTA CLAUS? Now THAT is an entirely different matter altogether! Such a wonderful Christmas movie. (not as good as "Wonderful Life", but still phenomenal!)

A lot of great movies are in b&w and the cinematography can be just as impressive, emotional, and fun as the best color films. It's a shame to deprive yourself of those experiences. Hitchcock's "Notorious" (1946), "Johnny Belinda" (1948), and "I'll Be Seeing You" (1944) are some good examples, but there are hundreds. That said, there are plenty of great older movies in color too - they've been making them since the 1930s. "Gone with the Wind" (1939) for instance, one of the most popular films ever, and for good reason. It's still impressive today.

A favorite Christmas movie of mine. Maureen O'Hara is a gem from the Golden Age of Hollywood. Some of her other best movies IMO, are those where she is partnered with John Wayne, who were best friends in real life. Most of them are Westerns but one that isn't is the Quiet Man, an excellent film directed by John Ford that showcases her fiery Irish personality. There are a lot of great movies out there in black and white, shouldn't limit yourself in enjoying the classics. As much as I love the beauty of a 4K movie with a booming soundtrack, some of my favorite movies are black and white, in mono stereo. Actually one of my favorite sci-fi films is the 1927 silent film, Metropolis.

That man was played by William Frawley, and he played Fred Mertz in "I Love Lucy" four years after this movie debuted in 1947. Here is some more trivia. 20th Century Fox released this movie in the summer of June 1947. The studio promoted this movie as a romantic-comedy, and they did not tell audiences it was a Christmas movie. Even though the studio did not think this movie would be popular with audiences, it became one of the top movies in 1947, and it ran for seven months in theaters. Edmund Gwinn, who portrayed Kris Kringle, received an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role. I always liked Maureen O'Hara as the mother and a very young Natalie Wood as Susan. Many years later, Natalie played Maria in the film "West Side Story" (1961). I also liked the character actress Thelma Ritter who played the lady giving some compliments to Macy's. She liked that the employees would inform customers to go to other stores if they could not find what they want. This has been one of my favorite Christmas movies, and I watch it every year. Thank you for your reactions to this excellent film.

Because '38 was during the depths of the Depression and losing one's job, with so little chance of getting another one, was the depths of despair. The recent Disney version, made for 3D (where they have to keep having things come at the viewer) is also quite good and very close to the original story, too.

Back then, talking openly about anything sexual was pretty taboo. A woman was expected to maintain her virginity until her honeymoon night and even this was hinted at by "but she's a GOOD girl." As a result, child sexual abuse was considered only done by a stranger wearing only a raincoat so he could "flash." Adults who took an over interest in children were simply considered warm-hearted, particularly if they were in some position of authority. So Suzy hanging out with Fred would not have raised any red flags, even if it turned out there was a reason to be suspicious. The Hays Code that ruled film makers would never have let a film even hint about such matters. ---- And yes, smoking was so common, tobacco companies got doctors to talk about how "smooth" camel cigarettes were to the throat. Opera singers too pushed cigarettes. Big Tobacco also paid money to make sure actors and actresses were seen smoking in movies even more than they might have naturally.
