Hollywood & Iowa: “It’s A Wonderful Life” - A virtual program

Dec 9, 2021, 12:00 PM Central Time.

Join Leo Landis, State Curator, and Christopher Wilson, National Museum of American History, as they discuss how “It’s a Wonderful Life” has become a holiday tradition, a feel-good Hollywood tale of redemption. But now that 75 years have passed since its premiere, the movie is also a window into history, a glimpse into a turbulent era when Americans confronted many challenges that are still unsettled today.
