Its A Wonderful Life….

[Smowball]

Just watched it whilst wrapping presents. My eyes are NOT leaking x

[LadyCG]

I really need to watch it all the way through.

[Smowball]

I confess I missed the first bit but even so, considering how old the film is it’s just incredible!

[webbo3]

We always watch it on Christmas eve with some cold pork and pickles and a few drinks, its a Christmas tradition.

[elliemay1]

Am I the only one who doesn't like it? I watched it once to see what all the fuss was about but wasn't impressed, just found it very depressing

[davebro]

watched it - not a bad movie. bit shmaltzy.

[Fanriffic]

It's not just you elliemay1 - I don't like the film either. It's one of the most overrated films out there, the hype and praise this film gets is not merited. I just find it really depressing and the story is boring. Couldn't connect with the characters. Give me any Christmas film but this tripe.

[Smowball]

Lol, I was prob just in one of those daft soppy moods!

[Smowball]

What Xmas films DO we like then? I like Home Alone in New York as a complete extreme lol

good old George Bailey and Clarence Odbody (angel second class)
every time you hear a bell ring an angel gets his wings

my most favourite film ever

[david small]

Ex Royal Marine needs tissue box near when that film is on. For some reason my eyes leak. Perhaps I should ask Sqad about it.

[andy-hughes]

I loathed it.

The dialogue is all shouted, the editing is clunky, the acting is risible, the plot is sinister, I watched it once and vowed never to watch it ever again.

[davebro]

the actors make it special

[Smowball]

Very mixed replies!

[naomi24]

If you had never been born how would that have affected others? Great concept, great lead actor, great film. Well done, Clarence!

[andy-hughes]

// Well done, Clarence! //

Someone whisper to naomi - it's not real ...

[naomi24]

Bah! No magic in your soul mate!

[mumstheword1]

Love that film, makes me all warm & happy

Exactly how I felt about it Andy, it was so depressing

[choux]

A film based on respect, the failings we have, the trials and tribulations we face, the decency inside us and the love around us.
What is there not to like about IAWL?

I think The Office is hilarious - plenty of magic in my soul, mate!!
