Storytelling, with its tricks, its smoothing, cobbling and evading, may be our oldest hack. But if it gives us something we keep needing, it outlives the storyteller and all the décor. For me, the staying power of It’s a Wonderful Life comes from its two gifts. It keeps faith with human goodness and doesn’t pretend the world isn’t broken, that we don’t need help.

Adventure. . . It is reaching beyond the thing that is, into the conception of what can be. Imagination gives you the picture. Vision gives you the impulse to make the picture become reality.
