“It’s a Wonderful Life” brought me to tears tonight for the first time in a while.At a time of year when so many feel lonely and discouraged, it should be required holiday watching for everyone. It should be prescribed any time of the year for those feeling downtrodden and friendless.I don’t know of a more heartwarming, uplifting old movie than “It’s a Wonderful Life.”Pop some popcorn, pour a mug of hot chocolate, and get out that old classic “It’s a Wonderful Life” this week. You’ll be glad you did.

“You see, George, you’ve really had a wonderful life.”

“A toast, to my big brother George, the richest man in town.”

“No man is a failure who has friends.”
