TPR’s Festival of Christmas Tales: Screen Director’s Playhouse’s “Miracle on 34th Street”
After winning an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his portrayal of a Macy’s Santa Claus named Kris Kringle in the 1947 film Miracle on 34th Street, Edmund Gwenn reprised the role on the Lux Radio Theater in 1948 (also available from TPR), then again in the 1949 Screen Director’s Playhouse presentation TPR brings you here.
Fans of this classic Christmas story will notice that both the Lux version and this one differ not only from each other, but from the original film itself.
Merry Christmas.
