click On today’s show we’re closing out the year with a special Christmas entry to the Flixwise Favorites list. Lady P and Martin Kessler are joined by Lady P’s brother, Gary Lampert, to discuss Frank Capra’s perennial holiday classic, IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE. The panel talks about the film’s reputation as a sentimental tearjerker, how it got that reputation, and the ways in which tearjerker is and isn’t an accurate description. They also discuss how Jimmy Stewart is more often remembered as a persona rather than an actor, and the reasons why that is both totally reductive, but also completely understandable. Plus, they talk about why all great movies must end with ringing bells.
