It’s a Wonderful Life has a reputation for being a bomb at the box office, but it seems off-base t...

    That’s as early as I’ve found it in newspaper archives. A Los Angeles TV station ran It’s a Wonderful Life on April 9th and the 12that 1 p.m. On May 26, The Cincinnati Enquirer published an ad for It’s a Wonderful Life and said that tonight’s broadcast would be the first ever.

She played the Jimmy Stewart role. Cloris Leachman was the guardian angel. Wayne Rogers was Thomas’s husband. Orson Welles was the villain. "I love it rewritten for woman...

    You couldn’t get away from the movie. No TV station (that I know of) did what TBS would do for A Christmas Story and played It’s a Wonderful Life for 24 hours straight, though one suspects it probably did happen.

But there was a lawsuit over another movie and copyright issues, and the Supreme Court’s decision wou...
