A very happy Christmas to all who celebrate, and happy holidays to all! This year's MCM special takes us to New York City in the 1940s, to take a look at a favorite holiday movie: Miracle on 34th Street.

Join us in this trip to see what happened at Macy's between Thanksgiving and Christmas, and decide whether Kris Kringle was really Santa Clause.
