It's been a rough week worldwide. So, here's a little escapism: The clip above is from the 1946 whimsical drama It's a Wonderful Life, one the most beloved films of all time (in the United States, at least) and also one of the very worst movies ever made (according to me, at least).
Okay, so the clip above shows a run on a bank, which may lead you to think of our current chaotic global markets, the much publicized meltdown of the American economy, human greed and stupidity, big business & government corruption and cronyism, and the George W. Bush administration's legacy of war and socioeconomic-environmental disaster — but, hey, there's no need to worry. Really.
Just ask Frank Capra. Angels and Average Joes will take care of everything.
Featured in the clip are, among others, James Stewart, Lionel Barrymore, and the lovely Donna Reed.
