Regarded by most as the most loved Christmas film of all time, It’s a Wonderful Life stars the unforgettable James Stewart as George Bailey and features a superb ensemble cast including Donna Reed and Lionel Barrymore.
George Bailey (Stewart) has spent his entire life giving up his big dreams for the good of his town, Bedford Falls.
One Christmas Eve, he is broken and suicidal over the misplacing of an $8,000 loan and the machinations of the evil millionaire, Mr. Potter (Barrymore).
His guardian angel, Clarence (Henry Travers), falls to Earth and shows him what would have become of his town, family, and friends if he had never been born. George meant so much to so many people; should he really throw it all away? Get the tissues ready for an ending sure to pull at the stiffest of heart strings.
Directed by the legendary Frank Capra (Arsenic and Old Lace), this Golden Globe® winning film was nominated for five Academy Awards® in all the major categories and has lived on in our hearts ever since its original release in 1946.
