Description
"In 1940s American cinema, they were made for each other. This magnificent program captures how Frank Capra used James Stewart to project a message of an ideal America, perhaps best illustrated in their 1946 collaboration, It's a Wonderful Life. It also details their biographies and first meeting on the set of 1939's Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. Stewart's later career is examined--primarily his collaborations with Hitchcock on Rope, Rear Window, and Vertigo--but the program argues that Stewart's time with Capra produced a cinematic 'ideal vision of what man could be.'"--Container.
