  • Summary

  • Probably the episode most fans came to this podcast seeking.  After spotlights of so many influential fans' interpretations across the series, here we ask:  what did the creators of It's a Wonderful Life actually intend, and for what did they stand?  With their next of kin, we come to know them intimately, unearthing the stories of how a literal dream inside a Brooklyn apartment during the Depression by an antifascist slavery-abolition historian was added to by a playwright who hated his money-obsessed father, given definition by exceptionally kind and in-love husband and wife screenwriters and brought to the screen by a visionary who had helped define the meaning of World War II for the nation, along with the truly heroic American actor Jimmy Stewart.  Why did the movie initially fail?  And what impact did that have on the dreams of its utopian director?  SaveGeorgeBailey.com
