It's a Wonderful Life is a 1946 American Christmas supernatural drama film produced and directed by Frank Capra. The film stars James Stewart as George Bailey, a man who has given up his personal dreams in order to help others in his community and whose thoughts of suicide on Christmas Eve bring about the intervention of his guardian angel, Clarence Odbody. Clarence shows George all the lives he touched and what the world would be like if he had not existed.
Although it was nominated for five Academy Awards, including Best Picture, It's a Wonderful Life initially received mixed reviews and was unsuccessful at the box office. It's a Wonderful Life is now considered to be one of the greatest films of all time and among the best Christmas films. |
