Though in truth the film, Its a Wonderful Life bombed big time at cinemas on its release. TV showings have made it popular.

I just watched this film, again. The message is STAY IN ONE PLACE for the whole of your life. If you don't, you risk everything. You have no history, no permanent ties, no long-term relationships; you have no one to help you if you fall, get tired, give up. Angels do not exist.
