One of the most popular, enduring and fulsomely emotional films ever made; Frank Capra’s 'It's a Wonderful Life' is a gloriously sentimental testament to small-town moral values. Masterfully crafted, the film opens with angels discussing George Bailey (James Stewart), a man so beset with problems that he contemplates a Christmas-time suicide. As George prepares to jump from a bridge, his guardian angel, Clarence Oddbody (Henry Travers), intervenes and shows him just how badly Bedford Falls would have turned out without his good deeds. James Stewart gives one of his finest, most affecting performances and the film looks better than ever thanks to a new restoration.
