It’s A Wonderful Life (1946) may be the most anticipated review of the year. An all-time favourite of Harry, who no, was not named after the character from this film, the film features an iconic pairing of Jimmy Stewart & Donna Reed, while being directed by a first timer on the podcast, the legendary Frank Capra. We hope you all have a merry and safe Christmas this year, and make sure to get voting on the first ever Golden Hour Film Podcast Awards!
