Great book. Very sad and powerful.

Pretty lame not to credit Team Negative 1 for locating and scanning the print.

❤️

This is awesome. I wish more films had this style of behind the scenes.

What is Mary's problem? George comes home all upset, obviously something terrible happened, the kids are being little pests, and all she has to say is "Why are you torturing the children?" Torturing them? They're torturing him! Any mother with the IQ on the plus side would say to the kids, "Hey, guys, I think Dad had a really bad day, so let's give him a minute, okay? Why don't you go upstairs and play with yourselves, and I'll find out what's wrong and what we can do to help him, okay?" and gotten them out of there. Even those little freaks would have understood that, one hopes; it's a wonder George didn't take off his belt, as most fathers would have, and said "Really? You want to mess with me tonight? Feeling lucky?" And I still say if George never existed (I wonder if he realized later he missed his chance to start a new life as somebody else and be the explorer he'd always dreamed of being) Mary would have married Hee-Haw, as her mother wanted her to, and been very rich. He'd have cheated on her and made her miserable, but she'd divorce his behind, take him for every nickel he had, and become the benefactress of Bedford Falls. Win-win. At the very least I hope George fired Uncle Billy, who caused all the trouble.

I love this movie!! My Favorite Christmas movie!! And any other time too!! GOD SO Uses this Movie!

I'll never understand why this movie was a bomb, when it came out? Back then, people had sense enough to appreciate this country, and what it stood for! Now people like Soros, are using their money to destroy our country, and support Terrorism, and Communism!

Amazing book❤❤❤

Thank youuu please upload more of the premiere if you have more videos, thanks a lot for this

This is awesome thank you what a great find. I had no idea this was a short film before seeing fatso. Anne Bancroft was a genius she created an amazing and touching movie

Awesome. Thanks for posting this. Love the movie.

The movie version you're talking about is supposed to be lost, hasn't been seen in almost half a century and is missing since then. Some people have been actively searching for a potential copy of it for ages and all of a sudden your video shows up ! How in the hell did you manage to put your hands on it ?

16:50 Some incredibly shitty direction of actors here on Brett's part. He sounds as though he just sees Hannibal Lecter as a stereotypical slasher villain and not the complex (albeit unrealistic) character that Thomas Harris created. The take they ended up using for the final film showcases this perfectly (17:31). Hopkins comes off more as a guy impersonating Lecter here than the real thing.

Where did you get the 70mm version of the Empire strikes back from? 🤩

What's with all the celebrity ass kissing? Puff daddy, Michael Jackson..

I really didn't like the producer trying to bully the home owner into letting them burn his house down! Good for the wife for standing up to him.

So it was a short film before it became a full length film in 1980? I was not aware of this. Dom had a beard in this one and was clean shaven in the later film. And someone else is playing his sister.

Nope. Jimmy Stewart just never did it for me.

This movie became so popular because of an error. In the 70s the copyrights were expiring and there was a fee to be paid to renew it, that fee mindlessly was forgotten and the copyrights expired thus letting TV to show the movie freely which they did and made it so popular by all the new exposure. The fee was a mere $4.00 and if that fee had been paid it is said that with inflation adjustments the movie would be grossing 26 million a year. My all time favorite movie.

Frank Capra was my great uncle, grandmother’s brother

Jimmy was the best.

I would agree in a sense. Shivers leaves you with a very profound insight into the horrors of life, more so than any of his other films. They feel contained within the story they tell, Shivers really points to you as an audience member at the end.

I love watching this movie - My Mom 1933 could relate to this movie - I own the movie plus watch every year 2 or 3 times through the year

My favorite film of all time!

more sinister than anything by Hitchcock, or anyone else...

Capra says he "came out of 'the War' a perfect pacifist" Gee, I wonder how the NAZI's would have greeted _'a perfect pacifist'_ ?

As a huge fan of A Christmas Carol (I have like a dozen versions) I always saw this film as the opposite side of Carol. Showing a man what a good difference he made in the world, instead of what horrible person he is. This is one of my all time favorite movies. 😎

This film epitomizes the objectives of decency and rectitude that America was once known for. Ironically the nightmare scenario of what “could have happened” to this town has , in fact, become a reality. Throw in almost daily mass casualty events coast to coast and there you have it… every justification to pack your bags and move to Scandinavia. It WAS a wonderful life.

You must be one sad and lonely person. Feel very bad for you. 😢

He commanded the 445th Bomb Group for a brief time, and my father served under him. They met twice, once in Tibenham and once in LA. In LA my father approached him and he told Stewart he’d been shot down. And Stewart asked: fighters or flak . . .

I don't understand why this movie was or is so popular for a Christmas movie. I like Jimmy Stewart, but not a Christmas movie with a depressing attitude.

For all who seek to do the right thing but watch the bad people succeeding, who suspect that no good deed goes unpunished, "It's A Wonderful Life" is a reminder that showing love to others is supremely important, and the others will repay you for your love to them.

My all time favorite Christmas movie. Epic, totally epic! 🌲

This .micing & touching movie so wonderfully done by Jimmy Stewart & Donna Reed has proven to be one of the ,if not the greatest classic Christmas movie of all time. Jimmy Stewart displays genuine emotion in the bar scene when he prays to God ... " Dear Father in heaven,I'm not a praying man,but if you're up there,and you can hear me,show me the way. I'm at the end of my rope ... show me the way......." That was not in the script,which may well be the reason why it was one the the most moving scenes in the film. Jimmy Stewarts ,-- not just George Bailey's -- genuiness was on display in a most touching way. Remember -- George's wife & children were praying for him -- he in turn -- at the end of his rope -- prayed to God. God heard - and answered - he & his family's prayers - and answered in a most woderful way displayed by a most wonderful ending. " You see George.... you really had a wonderful life....Clarence......"

One of the worst and most boring movies. Worst over done story plot at Christmas on tv as well. People like because they were force to watch at some point, movie equivalent of Stockholm syndrome.

the main reason this film is such a Xmas classic is because the movie rights slipped into the public domain & became free to use by tv studio's who then used it on Xmas Eve & it has become a Xmas staple every year.

Watched this movie about a dozen times this Christmas season including once on the big screen at a local theater and will do the same next season!🎄

watched this movie een few days ago in our local cinema. And was still moved by James Stewards acting. It is a magical movie.

The story itself had been made before, the what if. Although what probably made it more endearing was fact made right after the war.

Watch this film every Christmas. George was so shocked when his brother addressed him as the richest man in town, he had never thought of himself that way, he thought because his dreams had not been met that his life was a failure, but in the eyes of all those people in the town he helped, he was a huge success. It makes me think of the words to a song I like "if you can't be with the one you love, then love the one you're with" At the end of the day we must all, be grateful for what we have and we all must love ourselves to achieve true happiness.

I love this movie !

I still catch Jimmy Stewart on old radio programs,' the Six Shooter', something magical and comforting about him.

It was sometime after I graduated from high school, which had been a boarding school and really limited my access to vintage film, that I watched It’s a Wonderful Life for the very first time, and I still to this day remember being awestruck at the radiant beauty of a young Donna Reed. What an outstanding young woman she was. She was only 25 years old at the time.

Jimmy talks about there being special moments in this film, with him every moment with him is special. And other cast members were wonderful, Donna Reed as his wife, his mother, his brother who Jimmy saved as a boy, and the ultimate man of greed and villainy, Lionel Barrymore.

This is my most favourite film and I watch it every Christmas. This year I saw it on the big screen at our local theatre in black and white and loved every minute of it. I wish I could purchase the book that it originates from as I would love to read it.

There are no actors nowadays that come close to the talent of James Stewart and actors of his era.

👍 👍

Keeps me from blowing my head off every year.
