Notes on It's a Wonderful Life
Another movie to remind us of hope
A friend of mine was posting mini-essays on this classic, and I asked him if I could run it on FanboyPlanet.com. Here it is:

While prepping it, I found out that Prime is running a public domain copy that cuts out the entire Pottersville sequence and… what?
George falls into the water to save Clarence from drowning and that’s it? It’s a wonderful life after all? Sure, it saves run time, but if you’re on Prime already, you’re in for the long haul.
If you want to see the complete, copyrighted version, NBC will show it with commercials tonight or you can stream it on Peacock.
I’ll be listening for ringing bells.
