00:00How does it feel to be a star, Jimmy Stewart?
00:03It's the best feeling in the world.
00:06Hi, Dad.
00:07Jim, I see in the paper you won some kind of award.
00:10That's good, right?
00:11That's real good.
00:14They've already spotted U-boats off of New Jersey.
00:17The war's coming to us, Jim, whether we like it or not.
00:20I'm drafted.
00:21One snap, that letter is forgotten.
00:26Sir, don't I have the right to serve my country just like anyone else does?
00:30America can't afford to lose Jimmy Stewart.
00:34Jim, you're just not cut out for it.
00:36Make peace with the fact that you are what you are.
00:44Something to remember us all by.
00:46Come home safe, James.
00:49Good evening, sir!
00:50Dane!
00:51Stewart!
00:52Captain Stewart!
00:56I saw that in a movie.
00:57I'll be gosh darn, it really works.
00:59I've seen your films.
01:01Say?
01:01I'd like to know, is the man on screen the same man here with me?
01:06I've done that scene in so many movies, but this isn't a movie.
01:10This is my life.
01:12Leaving those men behind, it's not an easy decision.
01:16Do you think I'm a good man?
01:20I heard about what happened.
01:23That's a long drop, mister.
01:25Say ain't you Jimmy Stewart, the actor?
01:27I used to be.
01:28How'd you like to be him again?
01:32That's a wonderful life.
01:34I don't think I can do it.
01:35Who else, Jim?
01:36Who else can do that but you?
01:42Someone once told me that being famous is like being a god.
01:47I want to be a god.
01:50I'd like to be able to look at myself in the mirror and see a good man looking back at
01:55me.
01:55I don't know.
01:56I don't know.
01:57I don't know.
01:57I know.
02:02You're a good man.
02:03I'm gonna be a good man looking back at me.
