Miracle on 22nd Street: A New York Modern-Day Christmas Miracle

Miracle on 22nd Street is a heart-warming seven-minute documentary short film by Sarah Klein and Tom Mason  at Redglass Pictures.  The film tells the story of a couple living in New York City’s Chelsea neighborhood, who mysteriously started receiving hundreds of letters from children that were addressed to Santa Claus.  Everything about this film, from the couple’s struggle with making good on an unexpected obligation to hundreds of children, to their generosity of spirit, to their festively decorated brownstone, could not have been better cast as an inspirational, only-in–New York modern-day Christmas miracle.

Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer

Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer (1944) is the original classic cartoon version of this endearing Christmas tale, which was created by Max Fleischer two decades before Rudolph came to the small screen.  Johnny Marks’ infectious song leads into the well-known story of Santa’s winter weather troubles and how the bullied little deer saved the night.  The other reindeer in Christmastown don’t make Rudolph feel very welcome, constantly making fun of his shiny red nose.  But when terrible weather threatens to keep Santa Claus from making his annual toy-giving rounds, Rudolph is added to the team precisely for that bright nose, which guides Santa’s sleigh through the skies like a beacon in the night.
