Product Description
George Bailey has so many problems he is thinking about ending it all - and it's Christmas! As the angels discuss George, we see his life in flashback. As George is about to jump from a bridge, he ends up rescuing his guardian angel, Clarence. Clarence then shows George what his town would have looked like if it hadn't been for all of his good deeds over the years. Will Clarence be able to convince George to return to his family and forget suicide?

The colour version is great, it's like watching the movie for the first time. Highly recommended!! This is such a classic and everyone should know this movie. It has such a special message that is still valuable today.

The American Film Institute calls this movie the 11th greatest movie ever made. This movie will completely change your perspective on life. I strongly suggest watching this movie, for it will have a meaningful impact at the way you understand things.

Format:VHS Tape
The colorized version of this timeless holoday classic is a complete desecration of the original black and white presentation. The garish washed out colors (done in 1988 by Colorization Inc.), destroys the shadow and picture contrasts and kills the entire mood and tone of the film.
Go with the original black and white version. You will enjoy the pathos of George Bailey (Jimmy Stewart), who attempts to commit suicide after a financial breakdown but is stopped by his guardian angel who shows him the importance of his life...This is a true holiday classic that is strictly meant to be seen in B&W!!!!!!!

Not just the greatest Christmas movie
The colourized version is amazing. But quite aside from that, I think this film (colour or B&W) is actually quite underrated. Read more

It is a classic for the season
It is a imaginary story and it fits into the season of joy. It is nice to be able to watch a movie with children and not have to worry about the content of the movie

Christmas Gift
I purchased this set because I am giving it to my son-in-law who is an old movie "buff". It's a Christmas Gift so therefore cannot rate this product until then.

Great to see on Blu Ray
This is an outstanding movie to watch. I love the colored version and not the black and white version because it is great to see this even on blu-ray. Read more

I'ts A Wonderful Live
What's to review really, it's a timeless classic, how many movies do you know that are still being watched 60 or so years later.

old time goodness
I've seen this show so many times with my family that I can practically recite the script, but this blu ray has a color version which adds a lot of dimension to the movie. Read more

Purchased this DVD as "used". Watched the color version once and found the DVD to be alright. When I went to view it a second time, it stopped and started and skipped. Read more
