It’s a Wonderful Life

Picture by Frank Capra "it's a wonderful life" in 2006 has won first place in the list of most inspirational American films. And this is indeed true — brilliant for its simplicity, somewhere predictable, this movie is really inspiring. Inspires life.

The main hero of this Christmas tale — George Bailey. We see the fact, all his life. Or rather, not life and the things he made for your life. After all, the human actions which best describe it. And we see that George —  a nice man with ambitious plans, dreams of far travel, the entire spends his life in a small provincial town of Bedford falls. He not knowing it becomes the soul of this place. Bailey is always between choice — their happiness and the happiness of the middle. And whenever George chooses the latter; it seems that he was doing good for someone else but not yourself. And at some point it everything is so boring the main character that it is suitable to the parapet of the bridge.

And then there is an angel, an angel Second Class Clarence Odbody. And it shows the main character that would with the town, not be on the light(Oh, probably each of us wanted to see the world like that!). Clarence pursues its own goal — to wings. It as many as 213 years can make he will "in front of the boys uncomfortable." And in the finale of this tale of angel and People help each other. We see a real Happy End with tears in eyes.

Himself the film is done superbly. Funny and funny scenes are constantly interspersed with serious and touching moments. And it gives a special realism to this film, because this is our own life — not Comedy or drama, and a constant series of these genres.

A wonderful and the actors of the movie. They are so natural in their roles that for two hours I never thought of as well played by James Stewart in front of me I saw George Bailey, the real George Bailey.

Thus, "it's a wonderful life" — film-tale, film-Comedy, film-drama, made in a model for the classic Hollywood manner. But with all these material and technical advantages it is primarily a real good life-affirming. A movie that many of us in a difficult moment of life will be able to replace angel second class, forced to smile and say "it's a wonderful life"!

He lived a naive and cheerful boy George. It a childhood dream of distant lands, where will work as an engineer. It everywhere will need and love. Suddenly dies of his father. Therefore, the construction company his father goes into the hands of George. Now and not to study, not to the exotic countries. Still, it seemed that the charitable life of this remarkable man.

It need help in his hometown, which he and not left.

drama.

However, it is it that George — sensitive nature. After each undergarments evil old Potter, he about all in all. George in the end, tired of fighting with the old Mogul, to help ordinary citizens have neither a penny in his pocket, to see the success of his younger brother (whom he was once rescued from hole), keep on a good back for his family. He was tired! Sorry and human.

So God has revealed the fate of George's guardian angel.

It Mary would not him Mary and an old maid, live in library of dust.

Angel returns to his in place. George with happy laughter bursts over the threshold. There for it friends and relatives. And they bring you the latest savings in order to help the poor guy Bailey. When he saw it all beautiful, then I cried. From her tangible happiness. Happiness in your friends and family. And because of all the money and will not take! Huh?

Tale — you say? But it a big hint...

Let us love life despite all there difficulties. Yes is very bad! However, there is "someone out there" who always will support. And maybe we got wings? We only they are not see the bustle of our days. It would be nice each we like to sit in chair to perform the whole life and tune a noble cause!
