By Matt Neglia
It's the most wonderful time of the year and I would like to personally take a moment to wish all of you Happy Holidays on behalf of the entire Next Best Picture team. We are so incredibly appreciative to be able to podcast for you all and keep this site running. Without your Patreon contributions, we would not be able to put out the amount of content we do. And with all of that said, we are reviewing a holiday masterpiece for this month's second Patreon Throwback review. "It's A Wonderful Life" has been a beloved movie watching tradition for millions of people around this time of year. With its wholesome message, iconic storyline and excellent leading performance from Jimmy Stewart, it has endured for many decades despite its middling release in 1946. What does the NBP Team think of it though? Join myself, Lauren LaMagna, Josh Parham, Dan Bayer and Patreon guest Jeffrey Kare as we share our thoughts on the Frank Capra holiday classic. This is a preview of the podcast, the full version of which is only available to those who subscribe to us on Patreon. For the small price of $1 a month, you can receive this review along with other exclusive podcast content, so be sure to subscribe here. Thank you so much for listening.
