Talking Favorite James Stewart film?

I really like the movie and the play "Harvey". I nothing but wonder why! I saw the play Harvey at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis around 1990.

‘Who Shot Liberty Valance’ but really, all of them.

It's a Wonderful Life with Donna Reed and Lionel Barrymore, directed by Frank Capra. A Christmas classic and one of the best films of all time.

End of discussion...

Everyone else is wrong....

I am be biased...I have only seen it close to 50 times...

Clarence: Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives. When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?

I watch it every Christmas Eve. My favorite day of the year..

Can't pick just one. He was the greatest.

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. A classic. And, not a bad song too.

Hard to pick just one, but mine (in no particular order) would be "The Spirit of St. Louis" and "It's a Wonderful Life". Though it was a small part, I also really like his portrayal of Doc Hostetler in "The Shootist".

Liberty Valance but lots of great pictures, and he also fought for our country
