Story
The holiday film A Christmas Story, first released in 1983, has become a bona fide Christmas perennial, gaining in stature and fame with each succeeding year. Its affectionate, wacky, and wryly realistic portrayal of an American family's typical Christmas joys and travails in small-town Depression-era Indiana has entered our imagination and our hearts with a force equal to It's a Wonderful Life and Miracle on 34th Street.

The United States - the world's great bastion of freedom - is sliding toward socialism. High-profile bailouts and a stimulus bill have toppled the walls between government and private sectors. Federal control now extends in various ways to education, health care, financial markets, real estate, businesses, and religion. And as out-of-control government spending and debt increase, America is drained of the economic and political strength its people fought for and worked so hard to achieve.

William Bennett rewinds the story and focuses the spotlight on Scrooge’s miserly business partner, Jacob T. Marley, who was allowed to return as a ghost to warn Scrooge away from his ill-fated path.

Who doesn't love radio screenplays from the past?!
"It's A Wonderful Life" is one of my top 5 favorite movies of ALL time. I love anything classic from the radio. Makes me feel as if I am transporting back in time. I only wish it were longer in length. =)

Enjoyed this version immensely
Great radio version of one of the best Christmas classics. George Bailey & his angel, Clarence, are part of our Christmas every year.

A Holiday Favorite
If you're like me, your holiday season isn't complete without seeing Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed do battle with Lionel Barrymore. This old radio braodcast is a condensed version of the movie, with all the same actors. It's a great way to enjoy this classic while dashing through the mall.

What a wonderful story
I always watch the movie, It's a Wonderful Life at Christmas. Jimmy Stewart is one of my favorite actors. Once again through this broadcast, he brought George Bailey to life with his sincerity, and great performance.

Not Quite the Movie But It Will Do for a Quick Fix
Would you consider the audio edition of It's a Wonderful Life to be better than the print version?
I don't know a print version, but it's not as good as the film. Jimmy Stewart is in the radio broadcast. However, the angel, 2nd class, Clarence, is played by someone with a lisp, and he does not have the lovely sweetness of the filmed character.
What about James Stewart and Frank Capra ’s performance did you like?
Jimmy Stewart is such an "everyman" and his voice, separated from his physicality, may be even more effective than in the film. The scene where he asks Mary to be his wife is very touching and his recognition that he loves her comes through even more clearly than in the movie.
