Miracle on 34th Street

When an old man (Edmund Gwenn) is brought in to play Santa in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, everyone loves him for his impeccable impression of St. Nick and he's hired to play Santa for the department store as well. When he claims he’s the real Kris Kringle, although he slowly wins over the heart of a little girl named Susan Walker (Natalie Wood), others think he's delusional and want him institutionalized. Fred Gailey (John Payne) goes to court to try and prove that Kris is the real Santa Claus. This 1947 classic earns a perfect Tribute rating of 5 stars, tying for the top Christmas movie.
