    I just finished this movie, and I came back to this scene immediately after because it is probably one of the most romantic things I've ever seen. The way he looks at her is so moving-- the world freezes around him when he sees her.

      When I was about 10, I came across the telephone kissing scene and to this day it's my favorite kissing scene in a movie. I had no clue what the movie was called or who the actors were. For years I kept hoping to come across this movie again. About 8 years later my brother's friend was talking about a movie and he was choking up talking about it that I was curious to watch it. It was It's a Wonderful Life. When I seen the kissing scene I cried. I had searched for this movie for so long. This was and still is my favorite silver screen movie.

    The funny thing is that this scene was probably a bit of nostalgia for the older audience at the time, adults with fond memories of the Roaring Twenties before the Depression and WWII. The timeline of this scene and when It's A Wonderful Life came out would be the equivalent of a 2017 movie couple dancing in 1999.

    This movie is soooooooooo old and yet has more of a modern take on the filming style, the framing of the shots, than most other movies of its time. This is especially apparent in the technicolor version. The black and white version is my preference though :)

    • @teijaflink2226
      @teijaflink2226 2 роки тому

      I agree though this isn't technicolor, it's colorized later, how I don't know. I like the black and white version more too because it's the original and the picture feels more natural and skarp, but it fits in color too. I could never watch Gone with the wind or Meet me st Louis as example in black and white though as they where originally reliesed in color and absolutely beautiful.

    • @teijaflink2226
      @teijaflink2226 2 роки тому

      I think those two movies are filmed in technicolor as it was the most bright, beautiful way to film color movies. I don't really get how it works but I have realised there where different processes to create color film or film in color, technicolor definitely the best most beautiful film but even not as good color movies imo usually looks better than later color black and white movies, this one is really well done though and it looks pretty much original, I'm sure it is much easier now to color black and white film and make it look good, bright and natural.

    usually, I hate colorised versions of black and white films, but this is absolutely brilliant. I almost like it better than the B&W. ( what a traitor). and she is not HOT, she is beautiful. you dirty her with that word, she is a true lady.

    • @mumandauntyglad
      @mumandauntyglad 9 років тому

      I grew up on black and white, and films made in this time should be left in black and white, but this coloured version is not over stated. most are terrible, this is the best of the lot. I would tell you this,that I was six years old when this film was made, and have seen more than my share of black and white films, and you spell colorisation, with an S.

    • @ndogg20
      @ndogg20 9 років тому +6

      What really amazed me about the color version was how so many things faces and objects popped out of the background that I never saw before. Seems the black & white version blurred and ate up all the scenery.

      exactly, but my main objection to many colorised versions, is that they are far too heavily coloured, this version, I think being the exception.

    Some people have said that this scene was faked. I am not old enough to have attended the shooting of the scene, but I know it wasn't faked--I have personally seen the floor in the Beverly Hills High School gym opening up into a swimming pool, as it did here, albeit 20 years later. And I prefer this "spoiled prom" scene to the one in the movie _Zapped!,_ in which the event was ruined and the kids' clothes were pulled off.

    I remember watching this movie every year at Christmas, before it was taken off the air. Today, to my shock, I mentioned "Zuzu's petals" to a young gal of 25. She gave me a strange look, shook her head and told me she didn't know what I was making reference to.
    I said, "It's in 'It's a Wonderful Life' - Zuzu's petals. Remember?"
    She'd never seen the movie. The title sounded vaguely familiar to her, but she'd never seen the movie.

      It wouldn't be hard to get fans of this movie to do it! Then everyone could leave in dry football team clothing. That would actually be a fun event to see and try. It could be a yearly thing around Christmas, and partnered with Turner Classic Movies.
