It is amazing to find out all that Jimmy Stewart accomplished in his life. When I was young my Mom and I always watched his movies together. I watch It's a Wonderful Life every Christmas. My favorite movie of his was Rear Window. I've lost count on how many times I have watched it. I loved watching all the old movies. They were so much better than those today.
Jimmy Stewart was a true gentleman, so much like my dad, Bruce. The looked alike when they were young. He was too young to serve in WWII like his elder brother. Deeply missed... Old school shining stars...
You didn't know him. How can you say he was a "true gentleman?" Do you believe all the nonsense that came out of Hollywood then, or now??? He was a sick creep.
This isn't true. The exact quote was from Bill Frye was that it was too controversial but Jimmy would never say so. So it's Mr. Frye's opinion on why not what Jimmy said. Regardless, there is ample evidence that he was not racist. It's disheartening that a great human being's reputation can be tarnished by a couple of bad quotes and unsourced, unresearched junk videos 30 years after the man dies. There have been a lot of turds in hollywood, James Stewart wasn't one of them.
Harper Lee, author of “To Kill a Mockingbird”, very much wanted Gregory Peck to play Atticus Finch. The book was based on her father and she felt he resembled her father in many ways.She even presented him with her father’s watch when the picture finished shooting. The part may have been offered to Stewart,but she wanted Peck. I thought this was common knowledge.😊
I think Brooke Hayward just wanted money, but there is no denying that Fonda while an undebiably great talent he was a wrenchedly horrible narcissist who did a lot of damage to those close to him.
It wasn't a wonderful life?? The narrator says "it truly was a wonderful life" in the end of this. I detest selatious headlines that aren't true, just to get you to watch.
Jimmy Stewart must be rolling in his grave when he sees what his great-great grandson Jon Stewart has done with his legacy..not to mention Green Lanterns of Color.
Stewart was indeed a brave man piloting a bomber plane during WW2, and a damn good actor, but he was also a rabid right-winger who spied on friends and colleagues for the FBI during the Red Scare of the late 1940s-50s destroying the careers and lively hoods of many good people.
Thanks for visiting The Concealed Facts Channel! I hope you enjoy this video!
He definitely was right up there as one of the best there ever was.

He changed my life. He saved my life.
Now, just HOW did Jimmy Stewart change or save your life?
unlikely.

They just don’t make um like James Stewart anymore.
Oh yes they do. There are LOTS of arrogant actors in Hollywood today. I hated that ******* creep.
It's a Wonderful Life was the best comedy/drama ever made.
He was offered the lead role in the film "To Kill a Mockingbird" but refused saying it was too liberal. The part went to Gregery Peck.
Actually, unfortunately Jimmy was a racist - and not playing the lead in that "liberal" movie - really had meaning.
He absolutely was not.

Peck was wonderful in this role !
Please Correct Your Photograph. 😮
They aren't interested in being accurate, unfortunately.
If Stewart was not the man you saw on the screen l would just as soon not know about it.
He wasn't he was far better, flaws and all.
Loved that guy
Love Jimmy Stewart
This is just warmed over, regurgitated crap with a click-bait title.
File vision and dates are also incorrect. Highly annoying.
who is that in the opening photo? @@Joy1957K
Crap that isn't remotely accurate.
I think Brooke Hayward just wanted money, but there is no denying that Fonda while an undebiably great talent he was a wrenchedly horrible narcissist who did a lot of damage to those close to him.
That's not Jimmy Stewart.
Clickbait

I don't want to know all the stars the real ones r gone the so called ones now r crap
Jimmy Stewart isn't one of them.
visuals and audio correlation don't exist on this mediocre effort.
Okay
This video is appalling.
Jimmy Stewart must be rolling in his grave when he sees what his great-great grandson Jon Stewart has done with his legacy..not to mention Green Lanterns of Color.
Never knew that. Thanks for posting.
