Without me...

Have you ever thought about what the world would be like without you?
If you never came to the world, if you never appeared, how would the world be different?
We are not very important people, and we have not done anything earth-shattering, so what would be different without us?
Without me, there will be another person to make up for my vacancy.
I think this is the reality of most people.

At the end of the movie, when people from the whole village came to help George, I really felt moved.
No man is a failure who has friends.
Good people are rewarded.
The meaning of George's life is to help countless people. The wealth of his life is what the people want to harvest.

But if it were you, would you like to be George Bailey?
Since I was young, I have dreamed of traveling around the world, and I always wanted to leave the village and explore the world. Then in my entire life, because of the general yoke, I have never seen the outside world.
All my life, I live for others.
Give up yourself, give up your dreams, and fulfill others.
This is a great man, that kind of human brilliance, I can't afford it.

In order to save his brother when he was young, he jumped into cold water and deafened his left ear.
To prepare to go to university, but because of the sudden death of his father, he couldn't let the bully rich man buy the company and gave up studying and stayed to inherit his father's business.
I think four years later, when my younger brother graduates, I will let my younger brother accept him to go out, but when my younger brother came back, he was married and received an offer from his father-in-law, so he wanted to stay in order to perfect his younger brother.
Preparation for honeymoon is lacking. Because of the temporary crisis of the company, all the money for honeymoon is used to solve the urgent need.
In order to let the poor live in a good house, he insisted on that loan company, earning only $45 a month, and living in a dilapidated and leaky house with his wife and children.
...
It seems that even if you don't want to be him, you have to do it when you are faced with it.

If I have a chance, I really want to see a world that I have never seen before.
Then, I will find that the world is no different.
It's like my existence has never made sense.

    “While Capra celebrates a heroic life, the film also contains a lot of cynical elements that reflect both wartime and postwar sacrifices. George’s life has never been in control, and the portrayal of his reluctance to accept home life is so interesting, Because it's often used to describe women who are forced to give up their dreams for the sake of their families. Despite the "happy ending", the train whistle always reminds George of his missed opportunities and missed adventures. In that sense, how wonderful life could be It is one of the most melancholy and gloomy works in the history of cinema." 2014.12.03.

It's a Wonderful Life quotes

  • George Bailey: Rochester? Why Rochester?

  • Pa Bailey: I know it's soon to talk about it.

    George Bailey: Oh, now Pop, I couldn't. I couldn't face being cooped up for the rest of my life in a shabby little office... Oh, I'm sorry Pop, I didn't mean that, but this business of nickels and dimes and spending all your life trying to figure out how to save three cents on a length of pipe... I'd go crazy. I want to do something big and something important.

    Pa Bailey: You know, George, I feel that in a small way we are doing something important. Satisfying a fundamental urge. It's deep in the race for a man to want his own roof and walls and fireplace, and we're helping him get those things in our shabby little office.

    George Bailey: I know, Dad. I wish I felt... But I've been hoarding pennies like a miser in order to... Most of my friends have already finished college. I just feel like if I don't get away, I'd bust.

    Pa Bailey: Yes... yes... You're right son.

    George Bailey: You see what I mean, don't you, Pop?

    Pa Bailey: This town is no place for any man unless he's willing to crawl to Potter. You've got talent, son. I've seen it. You get yourself an education. Then get out of here.

    George Bailey: Pop, you want a shock? I think you're a great guy.

    [to Annie, listening through the door]

    George Bailey: Oh, did you hear that, Annie?

    Annie: I heard it. About time one of you lunkheads said it.
