MIRACLE ON 34th STREET (1947, Dir: George Seaton)

  • Summary

  • Corbin and Matt talk about 'MIRACLE ON 34th STREET, a Sentimental Christmas Classic about Department Stores and the supremac y of the suburban lifestyle. We recorded it a few weeks ago so Corbin forgot specific topics but he suspects they talk about the emergence of consumer culture in America, the eternal American Christmas Disconnection, and the movie's oddly cynical edge.

    Watch the movie here. Check out Land of Desire, a book about the history of the department store, here.

    Corbin reccomends "THE JOY OF CHRISTMAS," a Bob Dylan album. Matt reccomends his own website. Next week's episode is about "Miracle on 34th Street," but the 1997 version. Watch it here.
