It's a Wonderful Stock George Bailey (played superbly by Edward G. Robinson) grows up in the small town of Manhattan, dreaming dreams of online porn and screaming multimedia quotes, but circumstances conspire to keep him enslaved to his home turf in investment banking. Frustrated by his life of issuing a constant stream of buy recommendations, and haunted by an impending scandal, George prepares to commit suicide on Christmas Eve. A heavenly messenger (Peter Lorre) arrives to show him a vision: what the world would have been like if George had never been born. The sequence is a vivid depiction of the American Dream gone bad, and probably the wildest thing Ron Howard ever shot. Howard's triumph is to acknowledge the difficulties and disappointments of investments, while affirming--in the teary-eyed final reel--his cherished values of friendship and individual achievement, where he promptly issues sell recommendations on Amazon.com at 5.
