This is director Frank Capra's classic bittersweet comedy/drama about George Bailey (James Stewart),
the eternally-in-debt guiding force of a bank in the typical American
small town of Bedford Falls. As the film opens, it's Christmas Eve,
1946, and George, who has long considered himself a failure, faces
financial ruin and arrest and is seriously contemplating suicide. High
above Bedford Falls, two celestial voices discuss Bailey's dilemma and
decide to send down eternally bumbling angel Clarence Oddbody (Henry Travers),
who after 200 years has yet to earn his wings, to help George out. But
first, Clarence is given a crash course on George's life, and the
multitude of selfless acts he has performed: rescuing his younger
brother from drowning, losing the hearing in his left ear in the
process; enduring a beating rather than allow a grieving druggist (H.B. Warner)
to deliver poison by mistake to an ailing child; foregoing college and a
long-planned trip to Europe to keep the Bailey Building and Loan from
letting its Depression-era customers down; and, most important,
preventing town despot Potter (Lionel Barrymore)
from taking over Bedford Mills and reducing its inhabitants to penury.
Along the way, George has married his childhood sweetheart Mary (Donna Reed),
who has stuck by him through thick and thin. But even the love of Mary
and his children are insufficient when George, faced with an $8000
shortage in his books, becomes a likely candidate for prison thanks to
the vengeful Potter. Bitterly, George declares that he wishes that he
had never been born, and Clarence, hoping to teach George a lesson,
shows him how different life would have been had he in fact never been
born. After a nightmarish odyssey through a George Bailey-less Bedford
Falls (now a glorified slum called Potterville), wherein none of his
friends or family recognize him, George is made to realize how many
lives he has touched, and helped, through his existence; and, just as
Clarence had planned, George awakens to the fact that, despite all its
deprivations, he has truly had a wonderful life. Capra's first
production through his newly-formed Liberty Films, It's a Wonderful Life
lost money in its original run, when it was percieved as a fairly
downbeat view of small-town life. Only after it lapsed into the public
domain in 1973 and became a Christmastime TV perennial did it don the
mantle of a holiday classic. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
Review
The image of It's a Wonderful Life has undergone a complete transformation since its 1946 release. In its own time, Frank Capra's
comedy-drama about the dark side of human nature was a modest failure,
neither a box-office success nor a critical favorite, though it garnered
some recognition in the form of 5 Oscar nominations, including Best
Picture. For the next 28 years, the movie remained a cult favorite among
movie buffs and Capra fans. Then the movie's copyright was allowed to
lapse and suddenly, during the early 1980s around Christmas (the season
in which the film is set), it seemed possible to flip on the TV at
random some nights and find the movie playing somewhere on the dial, and
that went double for Christmas Day, Christmas Eve, and New Year's. The
public came out regarding the film as a lost classic; Capra lived just
long enough to reap some of the belated acclaim, and his estate later
benefitted from the sales of the films that he owned outright, such as Broadway Bill and Lady For a Day.
The movie is in fact a dark, disturbing look at small-town American
life between the two world wars, rife with class envy and fears of
modernity, and featuring a before-its-time portrayal of George Bailey's
middle-aged sense of failure that seems more appropriate for an American
film of the Seventies. It is at once nostalgic and angry, and its
reputation as a holiday chestnut has been mercilessly parodied for its
conclusion on good spirits and generosity; Saturday Night Live, in
particular, had vicious fun with it in a post-end-credits parody in
which the people of Bedford Falls lynch Mr. Potter when they realize
that he has the money. ~ Bruce Eder, All Movie Guide
