George Bailey’s bleak Christmas Eve was actually shot during a series of 90-degree days in June and July 1946 on RKO’s ranch in Encino, California. The days were so hot — as Jimmy Stewart makes evident here, wiping away an only-in-Hollywood mix of perspiration and artificial snow — that Capra gave the cast and crew a day off during filming to recuperate from heat exhaustion. In the famous scene on the bridge, George Bailey is clearly sweating — although Stewart’s wonderful acting convinces us that fear and anxiety might well be the reason for that. | On the Set of It’s a Wonderful Life
