One of my favorite classic Christmas movies is "Miracle on 54th Street." As you might recall, it's about a man who claims that his real name is Kris Kringle and that he is actually Santa Claus. As might be expected, he is finally snatched up in a taxi and taken to Bellevue. Along the way, several medical/psychological practitioners occur in the movie. Kris knows all the different techniques and methods they use to try to determine sanity. "You want to know who the current president is?" he asks, for example. And then he says the name and continues with, "I can even tell you the vice president of one long ago president." And he gives that information. "I bet you didn't even know that!" he tells the shrink. If you haven't seen it before or as yet this year, try to get it in. Believe me, Kris Kringle is saner than most of the characters in the story! It is a cute and entertaining movie.
Thanks for this!
