Mary's horrendous and shameful fate without George Bailey.

George:Clarence, where's Mary?

Clarence:"She's just about to close up the library!!!"

Watching this scene as an adult and laughing my ass off every time has become one of my favorite holiday traditions.

Honestly imagine being Mary and just trying to leave work after a long day, when this weird shit happens.

Mary it's George! Don't you know me?!

TIL there's It's a Wonderful Life (Abridged)

To be fair, this movie frontloads an hour of exposition from talking points of light onto viewers. Even for the 1950s, that’s a bit much.

Didn't that movie used to have a war in it?
