This Book Looks At Why Frank Capra's It's A Wonderful Life Is Either The Most Inspirational Or The Cruelest Film American Cinema Has Ever Produced. It Depicts, Perhaps Unwittingly, An Ontological War In Which Two Well-matched Adversaries Fight A Series Of Pitched Battles That Neither Side Can Win Without Producing Tragic Remainders.
