One of the BEST films ever made!

Rating: 10/10 (17 April 1999)

This has to be one of the best films ever made! It is certainly one of my dearest favorites. I never tire of watching it and I always get a little more out of it the more that I do. Perhaps as we age and mature, we see more of life's lessons through George and Mary Bailey.
We learn that sometimes when our best ambitions, hopes and dreams fail... there is more to life than what simply meets our eyes alone. We are not alone. God does move all things to our best interest, even though we don't always see the immediate results that we hoped for.
Further, it is a message of hope; nothing in life is ever so desperate that taking your life is an answer. Giving up is never the answer.
This film should live on through generations to come as one of the best classics of our time. Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed have never been better. It is a poignant dramatic film, a classic portrayal of all that is good and descent and hopeful in life... surviving though all the injustices and downfalls that befall us.
This may be my most favorite film.
