Great BF, I don't know you but that exposes a lot about you. Its a Wonderful Life is one of THE greatest films ever. I truly think you can ditch all the religions and pholosphies of the world and follow the lessons in this movie. Its funny, sad and inspiring.
I watch this film several times a year, whenever I feel down on the world. We never realize the impact we have on those around us and the power of the individual. I think this movie gets "trivialized" because it is played so many times. I am suprised at how many people have NOT seen this movie. I had a high school teacher make us watch this when I was 16 and it has influenced my life. The scene when George comes home after Uncle Billy loses the $, his family is decorating the tree and he is in the process of losing it is one of the most intense scenes I have seen. The acting and directing is superb. Heres a guy who spent his entire life helping others and now is on the verge of getting screwed. His family watches him crack. I'm getting all teary eyed so I'm going to stop, too embarssing at work.
