Miracle on 34th Street (1959 TV Movie)
9/10
Good, but too short.
29 April 2019
This takes a 97 minute movie and squeezes it down to 45 minutes. That's the problem. It tries to condense a classic movie for the sake of a 1 hour TV show.

While is this is entertaining, it begs the question: Why a 1 hour version of a classic movie? Would you do a 1 hour:

*Citizen Kane?

*2001: A Space Odyssey?

*It's A Wonderful Life?

*The Godfather?

*The Sound of Music?

Probably not! This is a good adaptation of Miracle, but not the best-for that very reason.

PS, Alfred from the original 1947 classic is NOT in this adaptation.
