About this product

Product Information

James Stewart (VERTIGO) stars as George; a noble man who takes the blame for a crime he did not commit. After attempting to kill himself, George is visited by a guardian angel and given a glimpse of a world without him in it, and the repercussions his absence has on his nearest and dearest. Director Frank Capra (MR. DEED'S GOES TO TOWN) created a poignant and feel-good film that has stood the test of time and is rightly considered to be the quintessential Christmas classic.

ReviewsGuardian (UK) - A genuine American classic., Empire - Although peppered with colourful, sharply drawn characters, this is Stewart's movie, instantly loveable as a small town dreamer who sacrifices everything for others. His journey to despair and back warms the cockles like little else. Enjoy it in a cinema so you can sob among others, DVD Verdict - IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE is a bona fide classic., Chicago Sun-Times - At a seminar with some film students in the 1970s he was asked if there were still a way to make movies about the kinds of values and ideals found in the Capra films. 'Well, if there isn't," he said, "we might as well give up.'
Additional InformationThe legendary James Stewart (HARVEY, VERTIGO) stars as George Bailey. George is a noble man who has spent much of his life on a crusade to stop shady local businessman Henry Potter (Lionel Barrymore û TREASURE ISLAND, DUEL IN THE SUN) from taking over the picturesque town of Bedford Falls. However, on a typically snow-covered Christmas Eve, George plays right into Potter's hands when his uncle manages to lose a considerable amount of their family business' money on the way to the bank. Ironically, Potter discovers the missing money and hides it, knowing that its disappearance will tarnish the Baileys' white-than-white reputation. Taking responsibility for the shortage and realising that he faces prison, George attempts to kill himself but in a bizarre twist of fate is visited by a guardian angel. In true Dickensian style, George's newfound friend gives him the opportunity to glimpse a world without him in it and the repercussions his absence has on his nearest and dearest.<BR><BR><BR>Nominated for numerous Academy Awards (including Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Director) and ranking at number 11 on the American Film Institute's list of 100 greatest movies, Director Frank Capra (MR. DEED'S GOES TO TOWN, LOST HORIZON) managed to create a poignant and feel-good film that has stood the test of time and is rightly considered to be the quintessential Christmas classic.

  • It's a Wonderful Life

    I bought the original & coloured version of this film for my Husband for Valentine's Day as he likes this film so much and wasn't disappointed!! Adding colour to this timeless classic just enhances everything that's good about this film. Directed by Frank Capra in 1946 and stars James Stewart as George Bailey, living in Bedford Falls as a man who has his whole life planned out in front of him, but as you would expect things don't always go to plan. He is a well respected business & family man, married to Mary Hatch played by Donna Reed, who through a number of circumstances ends up in a job not of his choosing and becomes quite frustrated, then one day he almost loses everything and decides to end it all, but even that doesn't go the way he plans!! His guardian angel is sent from heaven to help him by showing him what life would have been like if he had never existed!! James Stewart is amazing in this film, he plays his part well as he takes you on a real roller coaster ride with his emotions, you really feel his total despair and then sheer joy & happiness as he returns to his normal life with a more optimistic outlook!! It's a real feel good film, perfect for family viewing. Although this film is set at Christmas it's suitable for watching at any time of the year!! I would certainly highly recommend it!!

  • Excellent quality 2 disc DVD

    Love this film & I've watched it in the original black & white version so many times I've lost count, but the colourized version was new to me and made it seem I was seeing the film for the very first time. The quality of this colourized version is really excellent, and it highlights more of the fascinating details in the film's costumes and interior decor that you generally miss in the original black & white version.
