Trivia about [[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]] include:
* [[Enforced Method Acting]]: Natalie Wood really did feel surprised when she tugged at Kris Kringle's beard, and saw him naturally react in minor pain.
* [[Executive Meddling]]: The film was originally released in ''May'' despite being a Christmas film, due to an executive that believed people were more willing to see movies in May instead. This famously led to a marketing campaign that hid the Christmas themes of the film, including a trailer that instead of showing the film showed a fictional producer trying to figure out how to sell it while other contemporary stars raved about it. Fortunately, the film turned out to be a massive success anyway and actually ran long enough that it was still in theaters when Christmas ''actually'' rolled around.

** In the original, the judge's political advisor is [[I Love Lucy|Fred Mertz]]. The judge himself is [[His Girl Friday|Peter "Pinky" Hartwell]].

** In addition to the established character actors, the 1994 remake had Jayne Leeves around the time ''[[Frasier]]'' was starting, and Dylan McDermott of ''[[The Practice]]''. It also has Allison Janney years before ''[[The West Wing]]''.
* [[Keep Circulating the Tapes]]: The 1973 made-for-TV remake has yet to receive a DVD release. However, it has become available for Netflix streaming.
