Mr. Deeds Goes to Town

A typical fairytale premise adapted to the needs and space-time of a classic Hollywood movie whose sincere character is one of the most beautiful in the history of cinema, despite and perhaps even thanks to the horror of the economic crisis of the time. Beautifully executed, with even better performances and an immensely appealing timeless story about how money is everything but nothing at the same time. Brilliant in its funny and intelligent dialogues, in its sensitively hinted at romantic line and in its honest portrayal of the clash of two worlds: unquenchable greed with natural kindness and solidarity, which specially deserves all the compliments that an ordinary viewer endowed with at least a modicum of social empathy and cinematic love can give. 100% (06/12/2015)

I like Adam Sandler and I also liked the remake of this film, but Frank Capra simply has his own magic and created such amazing films that it's hard to match. "It's a Wonderful Life" is a great comedy that doesn't lack serious moments, and everything is perfectly balanced here, making it work excellently as a whole. Comedy and drama go hand in hand.
