Just so we’re clear, the villains won and had the heroes taken out back and shot a loooooong time ago. ❄️Happy Holidays❄️

(and in all seriousness, go watch It’s a Wonderful Life if you haven’t. It’s a great time capsule of the competing values of its time that, imho, provides a lot of context for how we got… here. And it’s a really good movie.

It couldn’t be made today by a major studio, and if it got remade for name recognition, the core message would be completely gutted.)

    I’m glad!

    Sorry for the overzealous rant/fervor, I have just felt for years like the movie expresses vital societal sentiments that either have or are on the precipice of being forgotten here.

      I love it brother/sister/whatever

      I think its great when people crystalize movies like this down to some insight about the world we live in.
