Presenter Rick Feingold discusses the #1 voted most inspirational American film of all time by the American Film Institute. 

It’s a Wonderful Life was a dud at the box office. After the copyright expired in 1974 it went on to become a Christmas classic. When greedy banker Henry Potter steals George Bailey’s life savings he considers ending his life. Instead, his guardian angel visits and shows George all the lives he has touched and what the world would be like if he had not existed. The film was both Director Frank Capra and Jimmy Stewart’s favorite. Features the original chemical snow, the surviving film locations, and the real-life location of the Main Street Bridge.
