I actually just watched this yesterday for the first time. I'd just seen The Man Who Came To Dinner and All This, And Heaven Too (I was on one of my Bette Davis film quests), and Pocketful of Miracles sounded like a film I might enjoy around Christmas time.
For me, this was Bette's show, she shines all around, especially as the movie progresses. Hard for me to understand she had to make a "comeback" later on in What Ever Happened To Baby Jane? What was wrong with movie audiences back then?
Peter Falk really stands out here, no wonder he went on to stardom, and nice to see lovely Ann-Margret in her film debut.
This movie has made me very curious to see Capra's original, Lady For a Day. I wonder why he wanted to remake his own movie, that's a rarity in films.
