A good friend of mine sent me a link to an article that appeared in the NY Times on Thursday (12/18). Entitled "Wonderful? Sorry, George, It’s a Pitiful, Dreadful Life" and written by Wendell Jamieson, it is a very interesting take on "It's A Wonderful Life." Since I just wrote about the same subject on Wednesday, I appreciated Mr. Jamieson's observations and wanted to mention the article here. I think he must have read my blog (it is wildly popular, after all) before he wrote his article.

Okay, that guy is just cynical. Criticizing the details of It's a Wonderful Life is like criticizing a cartoon. It's not supposed to be real--it's entertainment! And, by the way, I love The Bells of St. Mary's.
