Clarence...Where's Mary?

[PoisonErin]

Not enough people seem to appreciate or notice the hilariousness of this scene. I sure hope I can find I nice fella like George Bailey and will never, EVER be reduced to working in a library.

[Fmaack]

OMG Not the fucking library. Someone shove a cock in that pussy!

[partygirl209]

black and white movie FTW!!

[balrog13571]

Kind of weird thinking that a character played by Donna Reed would never have married and become a lonely old maid working in a library in a town under the control of an evil Lionel Barrymore. I mean granted another beautiful actress Stewart worked with named Simone Simon never married, but that never happened to her!

[Thereisonlythemoment]

Absolutely adore this film seen it hundreds of times. Take George out of the equation and it has a knock on effect to others lives. Life is precious and wonderful and we all have a part to play - we all want to feel that we are loved and valued and belong. Great Post.

[CesMan83]

I love this movie. But what annoys me about is how long it takes for George to realize what's going on...fella, can't you tell what's happening? This is life without you being born, man!

[ufo5440]

@CesMan83 He does realize that, but like any normal sane man, they don't want to believe it because George thinks it's all a hallucination. Remember the conversation he has with Clarence outside the bar?

[amazinglyace]

I love the fact that if George had never been born, Mary's eyesight would fail when she reached her late 30s haha.

[pendragonU]

@amazinglyace she would have been reading too many books at night instead of husband merry makingLOL

[AutumnDevi]

@amazinglyace Because without a man, a woman automatically becomes to frail and shriveled to keep living a meaningful life! THATS WHY WE CANT HAVE 1 LESS MAN IN THE WORLD! The estrogen levels wouldn't be properly balanced out!

[urasmore]

Mury? wheres Mury!

[IloveSirLancelot]

Gawd I adore this movie. James Stewart just kills me. And then he brings me back to life again.

[iloveclassics50]

[GallTheAbsurd]

Every time you rough up an angel, a bell tolls in hell.

[plurp7]

[moviehypno23]

@GallTheAbsurd hahahahahahahaha genius joke dude, genius, never thought of it that way

[Cappy14]

thanks for putting this scene up.

[plurp7]

thanks for watching:)

[kar120cfanatic]

Never realized how much Clarence looks like Andy Rooney, eyebrows and all! If this movie were brought up to modern times, George would be incarcerated for drunken driving, with additional charges of phone harrasment. Gower would be arrested for attempted murder. Billy would be drying out at the Betty Ford Clinic.

Bailey Building & Loan would be bailed out by the government. Bedford Falls would become Potterville which looks like any American former coal and steel town today.

[ianclivewright]

George's wife would sue him for sexist behaviour and drunken brutality, because she felt mildly threatened by the fact he broke the bannister rail.

His best mate, the rich one, would turn his back on him, and the towns folk would turn the other way, seduced by the short term prosperity that Potter would bring, unable to turn away from their televisions, too lost in the tide of junk to care.

The angel would get promoted by God for spotting a good business opportunity.

[antigeekess]

SHE'S JUST ABOUT TO CLOSE UP THE LIBRARY!!!!

AAAAAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!

LOL. Not the LIBRARY!!! 

Nothing worse than THAT.

;)

[lordalessan]

Worse, she remained a cold old maid.

[Fmaack]

@antigeekess NOTHING is worse than the library. NOTHING. She couldn't survive without George's dick.

[DeLorean4]

SHE'S AN OLD MAID!!!... that line never wears out.

[dierdragirl]

well, all i want to do is stay home and eat cheese. bacon might work, but it has to be hickory smoked. do we have a deal?

[dierdragirl]

[plurp7]
