"Its A Wonderful Life: The Movie Backstory & Message: The backstory to Frank Capra's film masterpiece "It's a Wonderful Life" featuring an exclusive interview with Karolyn Grimes Wilkerson, who played Zuzu Bailey in the film, and ended the movie with the memorable line : "Look, Daddy. Teacher says every time a bell rings, an angel gets his wings." Karolyn, whose acting career placed her on screen with Cary Grant, Bing Crosby, Jimmy Stewart, and Donna Reed, to name a few, experienced multiple family tragedies that ended her career at an early age, but brings an inspiring message about the movie and life. Music: Ross Bugden

It was the third "Vacation" comedy featuring the Griswald family- Clark. Ellen,Rusty and Audrey- and all Clark wanted to have a simple old-fashioned Christmas with family. His plan: to heavily decorate the house and roof with lights, Santa and reindeer, and to enjoy a simple Christmas dinner before celebrating the real meaning of Christmas. Instead he got uninvited family with their huge slobbering Rottweiler, an uninvited wild squirrel, electrical problems, big sewage problems, fire, and a SWAT team. Halleluyah!
