I saw "It's a Wonderful Life" last SAT for the first time in a long time. I forgot what a great movie it was - truly an epic film that is way more than a Christmas classic.

I saw it too, and it is just wonderful no matter how many times they show it. They just don't make "em like that anymore!

Just thinking about the scene where young George sees the telegram saying Mr. Gower's son has died, then realizing the old man has accidently put poison in the prescription.

How he tries his hardest to do the right thing, and then withstands being beaten by Mr. Gower while trying to tell him. And how poor old Mr. Gower realizes his mistake, and how he and George embrace emotionally, sobbing together...

One of several outstanding, poignant scenes.
