Don't let the cover fool you. This is only a black & white version. The packaging shows a colorized photo. The original is black and white movie which is great but I was hoping for both options. It advertises multiple formats, but colorized is not one of the perks. Just a heads up. I didn't read the fine print & was fooled by the photo.

This review is for the excellent "Miracle on 34th Street" Two-Disc-Special-Edition, which includes the following:
--Disc 1: Full Frame Feature: Black and White Version
--Disc 2: Full Frame Feature: Colorized Version
--Commentary by Maureen O'Hara
--The 1955 The 20th Century Fox Hour of Stars TV remake
--"AMC Backstory: Miracle on 34th Street" featurette
--"Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade: Floating in History" featurette
--Movietone News: Hollywood Spotlight
--Promotional short
The colorized version is very well done and adds sharpness and pleasure to the images. It is highly recommended! The B&W version is always there for those who prefer it.
This movie's screenplay and direction was by George Seaton who also did Teacher's Pet, Airport (the 1970 original from the novel), and many other classics. George Seaton had a gift for economy and clarity in scriptwriting and directing... there isn't one unneeded word or shot in the entire movie. When you watch other George Seaton movies, you can see the same scriptwriting and directing techniques and they are a pleasure to behold.
Heads up if you purchase the Two-Disc Special Edition: It appears that someone sometimes splits the "Disc One" and "Disc Two" slim-cases apart that come together in the box, selling them separately. If you receive only a single disc, but it is marked "Disc One" or "Disc Two," contact the seller (as we had to do).
All in all, we highly recommend this movie and the colorized version and extra features in the Two Disc Special Edition. It is definitely the best value and contains the most material about this wonderful movie.

The title of the product says "Miracle On 34th St bw". I discovered after receiving the item that the movie is the black and white version only! That is what the little letters "bw" are after the title. Why misleading? First...spell it out...black and white, not "bw". Second...ALL the photos on the box are in color. Only in TINY LITTLE PRINT you can barely read does it say black and white version only included.
BOTH color and black/white should be included for this price! For these reasons I give this version of the product ONE STAR ONLY! BEWARE! WARNING! BLACK AND WHITE ONLY!!! NO COLOR!!!!!!
And the complaints I've heard others make about the video quality of the Blu-ray is accurate. The images are VERY dark and does not have the "wow factor" quality of your typical Blu-ray.

I was very careful to find the version that said it was the "special edition" with a description that said it included two discs, with disc one containing the colorized version, and disc two the original black and white. What came was a single disk version labeled "disc one" and not even any room for a second disc. Very disappointed!

My wife and I each grew up watching Miracle on 34th Street in our respective families, primary at Christmas. So we both love the film and when Amazon had a good deal on buying it streaming, we grabbed it. Being summer and longing for something a little sweeter, we recently sat down to watch... and were reminded of a gentler time (our childhoods) and the memories of Christmas we both hold. Here you'll follow the story of a young girl raised to not believe in Santa, and a man who endears himself to her, her mother, and the handsome man across the hall. When our mother hires him to play Santa all sorts of things play out, such as a holiday commercialism battle between store giants, an egotist with delusions of psychological grander, and a court case to prove, is this the REAL Santa? Politics makes an appearance. And through it all, a gentle, kind man reminds us the true meaning of Christmas, while making us believe... Santa is REAL!
Step back into 1947 and a time when people needed to believe - perhaps as much as we need to believe now. And come away charmed. There are many classic black and white films that stand up and Miracle on 34th Street is most certainly one of them. Here's to hoping it remains (or becomes) a part of your holiday traditions. Wishing you a real, Miracle on 34th Street!

This ranks as one of my all-time favorite Christmas movies. I watch it every year. Last time, I started noticing some slight blurring as I've gotten used to blu ray movies. So I had to upgrade.
The transfer is excellent. Like other older movies, the switch to blu ray will appear slightly grainier than a dvd because it is sharper. I've watched both and the blu ray is much better.
I like the B&W version and that is what comes on this disc. If you want colorized, look elsewhere.

The original 1947 version with Maureen O'Hara, the stern but fair, no-nonsense "mother" to then rising child star 9yo, the charming and ever-so-practical Natalie Wood who learns about the wonder of fantasy from a "street-wise" Santa, played by Edmund Gwenn and an attorney neighbor, come suitor, played by John Payne.
Questions arise as to Kris Kringle's (Gwenn) mental state as he professes to be the "real" Santa and Kris is committed when the affable neighbor, Attorney Gailey (Payne) agrees to represent Kris. Doris (O'Hara) who is now romantically involved with Gailey, sees his involvement with (let alone is support of) Kris' case as a theatrics that could threaten their (and Susan's -Wood) future. The legal solution is probably not credible (but I'm not a lawyer), but it is clever (IMHO).
Gwenn is the quintessential Santa. O'Hara as mother trying to keep in reality as those around her seem to spin out of it is wonderful and Wood's introduction to fantasy through the eyes of a 9yo seemingly heretofore unfamiliar with such whimsy is adorable. Payne's "one-foot in, one-foot out" of reality (vs need for fantasy) would seem to be a real conflict, but oddly provides a sense of balance.
There are a couple of actors you my recognize in supporting roles: William Frawley, "Fred" of "I Love Lucy" fame, but don't expect to see "Fred" in this movie; and, a young Jack Albertson whose career spanned over 40 (50?) years and would appear in films such as The Poseidon Adventure, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and TV's Chico and the Man, with the late Freddie Prinz.
