It's A Wonderful Picture-"Wonderful Life" Terrific ****

Rating: 10/10 (7 March 2006)

Who can ever imagine what life would be like without them had they not been born? A very clever idea put to the test in the classic 1946 film, "It's A Wonderful Life."
As George Bailey, James Stewart truly shined. Anytime he was about to leave his town, tragedy struck and poor George could never leave.
Lionel Barrymore steals the show as a cantankerous businessman nearly succeeding in bringing ruin to Bailey.
Donna Reed is marvelous as his George's wife. Remember that famous dance scene as the boards open and the young teens fall into the water? That scene in itself is a classic.
If we could only see what it would be like had we not been born. We could see that our beloved ones and others may have lived totally different lives with divergent personalities.
