One of the oldest movies in our collection - It's a Wonderful Life is a movie that you have to check out since it is all about showing to one businessman how life would look like if he wouldn't exist. This is one of the topics that no one has ever been writing about and that is only one of the reasons why you will find this movie more than interesting to watch. It is an angel that does that and the lead actor in the movie is James Stewart who plays George Bailey. You also have a chance to see Donna Reed as Mary Hatch and Lionel Barrymore as Mr. Potter. Bailey has spent his entire life doing good for his own town and giving up on his dreams Bedford Falls. We can see that in the flashback. In the present tho, on Christmas Eve he even thinks about committing suicide because of the misplaced loan and dealing with an evil millionaire. His angel is Clarence and after falling to Earth, Bailey realizes that life is much more than he ever thought it would be. It is an interesting twist after he sees what it would all look like without him and that is what makes him start thinking in different ways. When you mean a lot to a many people, there is a question in the air, what do you need to do in order to make the best decision. That is what he is dealing with in It's a Wonderful Life.
