Overview
A holiday favourite for generations… George Bailey has spent his entire life giving to the people of Bedford Falls. All that prevents rich skinflint Mr. Potter from taking over the entire town is George’s modest building and loan company. But on Christmas Eve the business’s $8,000 is lost and George’s troubles begin.

Viewing Notes
Since I seem to catch a bit of this every year or so it doesn’t feel like it’s been that long since I’ve seen this. However, I can’t recall the last time I watched the entire film. Definitely has been several years. Was itching to watch a traditional Christmas film and this fits the bill. I just love Donna Reed in this. How can you not be smitten w/her? “Remember no man is a failure who has friends.”
