It's a Wonderful Life (LXRT)

A good man, beaten down by circumstances, thinks of ending it all when he is given the gift of seeing his true impact on the world.

If you loved the movie, this faithful adaptation will bring back the warm fuzzies. I've seen it produced live at a small theater in San Diego, the Cygnet Theater in Old Town. It's so wonderful to see these old radio shows live and watch the foley work. If you ever get the chance...
