  • Its A Wonderful Life

    Contributed by Steven Spillman on May 2, 2008
     | 3,532 views

    “It’s A Wonderful Life” is a remembrance of that innocence.

    Every Christmas season I watch Frank Capra’s “It’s A Wonderful Life” on television. It’s not that I plan it or anything; it just happens to come on some night when I happen to be watching TV. Usually, one of the networks will air the movie on the 23rd of December; sometimes even Christmas Eve. ...read more
