I never spend a christmas season without a visit with willie krueger and this great film is worth anyone s attention.

Christmas movies jimmy stewart. Directed by kieth merrill. With james stewart beverly rowland kamee aliessa tamara fowler. Directed by frank capra.

Stewart plays willie krueger a lonely old man enduring a christmas alone in his basement apartment with his cat george. The nativity i s an important co star and james stewart delivers a superb performance as was his custom. Willie krueger wants nothing to do with being alone at christmas.

We never learn why he is alone and why there is no family about him save only that he was once married but that his wife has passed on. Considered by many myself included to be one of the greatest films ever made the perennial classic it s a wonderful life starring jimmy stewart has become a fixture of the christmas season.
