Watched this before going to bed. And I slept so well. The kind of movie that leaves you with a rested mind and a smile on your face.

Edmund Gwen (sic) is always a plus along with the stars and character actors. Script writer/s, costumier/es, set dresser/s, continuity person/s, director, producer/s, extras, bit parts for adults and children, electricians, carpenters, prop master/s, sound and camera persons, editor, lighting director/s, studio moguls who decided to add this O'Henry-esque candidate to the stable. Everybody is a winner, makers and viewers alike! Thank you for sharing this wonderful film with us. ❤🎉😊

I may have made this comment before but in case I didn't here it is. Saw this movie when I was a little kid and thought it was quite cute not understanding the ramifications of what Mr. 880 was doing. Saw it again when I was older and got a little choked up. I’m 74 now and it brings a tear to my eye.

It’s Burt Lancaster and Dorthy McGuire…great movie for both of them but Mr. 880 stole my heart ♥️ Thank you for an AD FREE movie! New subscriber here!

If Edmund Gwynn is in the movie you know it’s a good movie!

Today is this film's birthday. It was released September 29, 1950

I last saw this movie when I was in the 8th grade 60 years ago. There was an organization that brought movies into the schools that provided it for the whole school to watch in the auditorium. I liked it then and I still do. Burt Lancaster played his part excellently and Emond Gwinn as the counterfeiter was the real star.

This was a great movie, aside from the fact that the sound went out at a moment that was important to want to hear what was being said. CAN YOU FIX THAT PLEASE??

I knew he was santa clause, great actors in there day, maybe live forever in are hearts and minds, burt Lancaster great person ❤

"Justice....without regard to the human mind or the charity of the human heart"...

What a precious wonderful film......one does not find this kind anywhere, anymore. It provides one with all kind of teachings......COMPASSION, caring, loyalty, kindness.....the world seems as if in the (movies past, at least) used to be a kinder, gentler place. If only in dreams. The actors did a great job! I have loved Edmund Gwen for a long time, beautiful Dorothy Mcguire and who could forget Burt Lancaster!!!!! Thaank you for the download.

Outstanding performance by the SKIPPER!

I loved this film from start to finish. A great movie . Thank you so much for sharing.

Wonderful film , very sweet story.people do care about each other.❤.

Thanks very much for uploading old time movies.

An amazing story. Too bad there's some audio problems but still very watchable ‼️

Lancaster is always superb--TY

Wonderful flick!!! Pure talent in film making and acting, no smoke n mirrors. Tku for post.

Saw this movie when I was a little kid and thought it was quite cute not understanding the ramifications of what Mr. 880 was doing. Saw it again when I was older and got a little choked up. I’m 74 now and it brings a tear to my eye.

A fine movie. It's a shame that the sounds fades way for a while almost at the end.

What a wonderful film. Unfortunately the sound cut out for 2 minutes near the end but I re-watched that part and addlibed the script for that scene. You won't find such an emotional and respectful film like this today. It's a must watch for the entire family and hopefully everyone can learn something about kindness and compassion. Thank you for the upload, I feel blessed to have watched it. I would love to be like Mister 880.

Oh how I love the old movies!!! They just don't make them like they used too, thank you for such a treat!!!❤❤❤❤❤!!!!!

Utterly charming! Good cast, good script. In fact, a minor classic.

Skipper, where’s your wife, children, grands??? This was a dream. I hope for MANY MANY increases in the graces of kindness, purity, care for one’s neighbor, charity and good will!!

I love Dorothy McGuire and she looked fine in fifties fashions.Thanks for posting this excellent film.

What a wonderful movie! Dorothy Maguire - what a woman 🥰

When this movie came out a dollar was actually worth something. $

Loved this movie!!!!

Enjoyable movie! Thanks for uploading.😊

They didn't know he was Santa Claus !!

🎬 A great cast, satisfying movie, you feel good afterwards. Can't ask more, thanks a lot !

What a lovely movie!

I've seen this movie before and know how it ends. I still teared up...Thank you for posting! Now, if you can just do something about the audio and the ads at the end which block out the final scenes...

I needed a dose of humanity today. Distractions and sleight of hand is the most common type of internal conflict in the world today. We are nowhere near as much more important than just an inch of a decree. Sorry, I'm afraid it will take some time to get back to earth as it stimulates a bit of study on this topic. I'm glad to subscribe and look forward to whatever pops up next. Thank you.

I Loved rewatching this old classic. A sweet story well played.

He was secretly released on December 24th for jolly good behavior!

A really nice movie point taken he made only enough to survive. and to end it all you did the crime you got to pay the time.

I’m still I’m amazed at how well the dogs 🐕 are trained in these movies. Although the old man doesn’t continue talking to him the dog 🐕 continues to watch him. 😅😅😅😌😌😊

A brutal and stylish noir about a ruthless counterfeiter played by master villain.....Ed Gwenn. Just kidding. But I will say that Burt Lancaster was at the peak of his charm. He was a man who could walk into the '21' Club in the same old sports coat he always wore and the same old tie knotted in the pocket and ready to wear. And every head - man and woman would turn to watch him pass he looked SO amazing with that acrobat's body and his eyes were icy blue like a malamute. Then Dorothy Maguire she is so WARM and TENDER always.

It was a sheer accident that I came across watching this movie as I had my doubt initially whether this movie would be quite entertaining going by it's unique tltle. But it turned out to be very charming and emotional if not for the most part of it but towards the end. Very nice and worth watching. Thank you for the uploading.

Said aww & bout came to tears short of 1 hrs when she realized it was him & he's searching

"The film is based on the true story of Emerich Juettner, known by the alias Edward Mueller," --wikki

A delightful movie! This movie leaves you feeling good! How many movies do that? Rare. 💫

I tried 4 copies of this movie and the sound cuts off at the same point on all of them. Looks like it was uploaded from the same source.

Skipper, have you been passing counterfeit money? Oh yes, for quite some time... yes, yes...epic. Lol

Thank you & Happy Birthday "Mr. 880".

Thanks so much. I love this! Such a nice gentle story😊

I enjoyed this movie thoroughly. Nice movie

They opened a new movie theater in Westover Hills in south Richmond,Va. when i was a kid.This was the first one being showed.15 cents.

Burt LancRockster !!!

Mr 880 is the actor that played Santa Clause in Miracle on 34th street.

Gr8 movie. Enjoyed very much. Would hav bn evn better if the sound continued. Lost in last act.

Gee, so 73 is "extreme age"? I turned 73 this month and hadn't thought of myself that way.

Every movie that I've seen that old man in he has been exceptional. What an incredible actor as he steals your heart and almost every movie in some kind of way. Hats off to Mr Edmond is it? I had seen this movie quite a few years before so I know it was great but I could not remember all the details so I completely enjoyed it all over again. It's going on my hard drive..... Wow what a movie !!!

One of Burt's good ones. Watch him be compassionate and then see Young Savages and watch what he does there. He made a number of "bookends" films like this, about similar issues from different vantage points. Lawman and Gunfight at OK Corral: the old marshal wants the budding criminal to turn from his ways. Scalphunters and Nuremberg: you don't have to hate a group of people to commit hateful acts against them. From Here to Eternity and Run Silent: when command takes the bit between their teeth, people suffer. Rainmaker and Elmer Gantry: miracles can come true. Maybe The Train and Valdez or Cassandra Crossing: resistance is not futile. To see Burt at the very start, go to Internet Archive and watch Desert Fury, his first movie role, and then The Killers, which actually was released first.

That was a mighty fine movie. Yep.

Yep. Missing sound at the crucial moment. I turned on captions to see if they'd have the missing words, but nope. Apparently, if there's no sound, there's no words captioned either. But i tried! Dangit i tried. 😂 It'd be nice if they put a transcript of the missing words for us in the description, instead of just leaving us wanting. Ya know? Oh well.

Graceful acting, wonderful sets and locations, fashion. Great film.

Such a good story.

Lovely film...have watched it several times......many thanks!

Парни в костюмах и шляпах,это то что не хватает нашей реальности в жизни

Beautiful movie. The old days. I miss them. A simpler time.

Just subed thanks for the great movies

Emocionante final.Es un placer ver a B.Lancaster,el Cowboy de Veracruz y el Principe del Gattopardo!!!!!.-

Edmund Gwen (880) was nominated for best supporting actor, George Saunders won it for All About Eve.

Wow! What a great movie thank you for sharing beauty thru the web 🍃💝🍃🙏🍃💝🍃

No credits no movie

So happy I saw this movie!!

History shows the United states went into debt as soon as they started printing paper money.

Only $1.00 counterfit bills?! That's not much. I'd let it go. What will happen to his sweet doggie?

Lovely story and fantastic acting, ❤

Fantastic story ❤

Why oh why does every old movie cut audio right at the important part???? This isn’t the first movie this has happened with!

This is a nice sweet movie. It's fun to watch.

Poor guy. Next thing you know he’ll be calling himself Santa Clause.

Thank you

humanity gets a yes

1.00 bills. That's funny. 😂

Ohh wow this movie is Great Tk u soooo much

The most important scene in the movie, at 1:12, the sound stops for two minutes!

The sound cuts out at a crucial moment!

A sweet tale of good and evil and how it can be extremely difficult to define sometimes. All three main characters, Edmund Gwenn, Dorothy McGuire, and Burt Lancaster, were fully realized and beautifully acted. There is a short audio loss during a dramatic moment, but be patient - the sound soon returns.

Loved it🙏

Burt Lancaster started in a circus, on the ropes he was more comfortable than on ground, he never used stunt double in his movies, let's see Arnold Schwarzenegger do that, lol

Thanks for letting know sound comes back. I'd have read it. Will fast forward...like these types better then the typical programming we received

Great movie

New subscriber here! Liked and all notifications🎉❤. Thanks for a great movie❤❤❤

For new viewers: The sound goes out for a bit at about the 1:10:00 mark but comes back on about two minutes later. BTW, this is a comedy, not a documentary, so the beginning should be taken in that light.

Yeah a great movie but the audio cuts out right at the most significant moment

'Only we can cheat people' The Treasury

"He is very old..." He is just 73 years old and the judge seems of same age but fit like a fiddle.

Just love the movie lost the sound just about at the end of it. Can you help to return it. Thank you

Beautiful

@ 1:27:11 - fined ONE DOLLAR ... and they made sure it was not counterfeit ‼️😆😆😆

From 1:12:20 to 1:14:04 the sound is turned off. I saw this lovely picture years ago, but forgot everything except a slight remembrance. Therefore, I was enjoying immensely being reacquainted with this picture until the sound was muted. What an evil twisted mind does such a thing?

Firstly toward the end of the movie when he's about to rest Mister 880 aka the skipper, there is no longer any sound coming out... Now I read lips but still...

Charming movie

Wunderbar 🖌️ 🎨.

Heart warming movie (with no ads) 👏😃

sweet....a PAST ideal usa with beloved and kind citizens portrayed and a particular justice system known in no other place.
