It's a Wonderful Life

My family has watched this every Christmas Eve for 20-odd years.  In the recent past (read, as often as possible) I've been away due to commitments with my wife's family.  This year I was back in time to watch most of it.

It's not that it's a bad film; indeed, it's a truly wonderful movie with fantastic casting, terrific acting, and a solid script.  Sure there are things that seem out of place today, but for its time it pushed boundaries.  (How dare the film end without the bad guy being caught?!?)  I've just seen it Too Many Times.

It's a Wonderful Life
1946, 130 minutes, directed by Frank Capra
