  It's such a pure movie. I strive to be half the man George Bailey is. And, as a big, former bouncer, Army vet, and a biker...I always cry at the end of this movie. I love this movie! Thanks for the reaction and merry Christmas!!

  People wrote to the producer of this movie (Frank Capra) and told him they were alone at home, or in a motel room, planning to commit suicide, but God had other plans for them. They turned on the tv, and this movie was on, and they couldn&apos;t stop watching it. By the end of the movie, they were crying and praying to God to help them, and they never killed themselves, because of the message in this beautiful movie. It&apos;s my favorite Christmas movie of them all.<br>God is really there<br>and He Loves you

  The bank scene (honeymoon) was during the Great Depression, banks and businesses were collapsing and lots of people lost everything, if George had let the Building and Loan go under, most of the people in that town would have lost everything. He literally saved the town that day.

  I could hear that line - &quot;To my big brother George, the richest man in town&quot; - a million times, and still cry every time.

  I once heard a story where Jimmy Stewart was approached by a fan and he said, &quot;It may not mean much to you but I really enjoy your movies.&quot; and Jimmy replied, &quot;No it &nbsp;means everything to me.&quot;

  That phone call scene is so amazing. George had been spending the entire night fighting the inevitability of staying in Bedford Falls. He finally threw away the travel brochures, but he is resentful as hell about being stuck there. Mary is what could be if he stays in that town, and he is still struggling against it and her until he can’t take it anymore. He shakes her as one last gasp of his wanting to get away before finally embracing her and everything she represents.

  Cop and taxi driver are Bert and Ernie. Many believe the Sesame Street characters were named after them
