One of the most over rated Christmas movie is "It's a Wonderful Life"

And every year networks shove it down our throats like it's the only Christmas movie ever made.

Why?

It's a Wonderful Life initially received mixed reviews and was unsuccessful at the box office, it became a classic Christmas film after it was put into the public domain, which allowed it to be broadcast without licensing or royalty fees.

Yet another example of how money and consumerism dictates how we perceive holidays.

I like the movie, and can surely choose not to watch it if I do not wish to.

@Piper it has such a wonderful message in it. It's a Christmas tradition for me and the hubby to watch it.

@Indy74 What is the "wonderful message" exactly? Try not to commit suicide during the holidays?

@cuppatea there was a man named schindler that went above and beyond to save as many Jews as he could from the death chamber. You don't need to be so nasty and condescending. There's always one on every social media site. 馃檮 if you didn't like my comment you should move on. Keep your mouth shut.馃
