It's a Wonderful Life (1946): James Stewart and Frank Capra


     Produced and directed by Frank Capra, It's a Wonderful Life (1946) was a box office disappointment upon it's initial release, but has since become one of the most beloved films of all time. The story concerns a selfless man named George Bailey, who gave up on his own dreams in favor of helping others, and plans to commit suicide... and the guardian angel that is sent to show him how truly important and meaningful his life has been. Classic moments run from start to finish, and the film has become a Christmas tradition. The cast is superb, including James Stewart, Lionel Barrymore, Donna Reed, Thomas Mitchell and Henry Travers.
