Timeless Movie: It’s a Wonderful Life

December 21, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

$5

Join us for this 1946 Christmas classic produced and directed by Frank Capra. The film stars James Stewart as George Bailey, a man who has given up his personal dreams in order to help others in his community and whose thoughts of suicide on Christmas Eve bring about the intervention of his guardian angel, Clarence Odbody (Henry Travers). Clarence shows George all the lives he touched and what the world would be like if he did not exist.

Today, It’s a Wonderful Life is considered to be one of the greatest films of all time and among the best Christmas films. It was nominated for five Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and has been recognized by the American Film Institute as one of the 100 best American films ever made. It was No. 11 on the American Film Institute’s 1998 greatest movie list, No. 20 on its 2007 greatest movie list, and No. 1 on its list of the most inspirational American films of all time. In 1990, It’s a Wonderful Life was designated as “culturally, historically or aesthetically significant” and added to the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress.

Presented in conjunction with Swank Films.

Tickets are $5 per person and may be purchased in advance or at the door. Doors open at 6:30 pm. Enjoy FREE popcorn at this special Timeless Christmas Movie!

The Pella Opera House is proud to provide quality arts entertainment to Pella and surrounding communities at affordable rates.
