Having watched the 4k version and then the colorized version I have to say that the colorized version has the best picture. Probably the best job colorizing I've ever seen. Where most colorized movies the coloring isn't complete and tends to partially disappear on faces when moving, that does not happen here. The picture is clearer on the color version and makes every scene really pop whereas the black and white version looks flat. I know there are some purists who still prefer the old black and white and that is fine but the 4k was disappointing for me. It wasn't nearly as great an improvement as say PSYCHO was which received a beautiful transfer upgrade. The STEELBOOK was very nice but I'm going to keep my old blu-ray copy which has a box with the little bell with ribbon on display in my collection. For a STEELBOOK collectors item it is very affordable. Read full review

The movie is good but overrated, however. It flopped on original release. It is dripping with sentimentality and American idealism. The Hollywood ending is as sappy as it gets. The last half hour it turns into a fantasy, which is fine. But one can't help but wonder what it could have been if it had a more realistic ending. It was in the public domain so long and played ad nauseum during Christmas because it was free. That's why it is considered a Christmas movie even though 3/4s of the movie has nothing to do with Christmas. This movie simply wormed its way into the American psyche from shear repetition! Then out of a familiarity and acceptance of the movie's sentimental and typically American ideology someone claimed it was great and everyone else just sort of agreed! It had a lucky bounce in other words. Read full review
