Never fails to move me to tears, the best of all films.

Rating: 10/10 (17 October 1998)

Frank Capra has created a film for the ages with "It's a
Wonderful Life." The story chronicles a man, George Bailey,
who seems to have lost everything that is important in life. With the assistance of his guardian angel, Clarence (the role of Henry Travers' career), George is shown how important his
life has been to those that are dearest to him. The film
captures the true spirit of the holiday season without
appearing overly sappy or contrived. A universal story for all mankind, "It's a Wonderful Life" is the rarest of all films: a
film that improves upon repeated viewings.
