It's A Wonderful Life is an absolute beauty of a film
As is The Philadelphia Story, and The Naked Spur.

Not seen the Naked Spur
but The Philadelphia Story is wonderful. As is High Society, which is fun and fluffy.

I also only saw True Grit the other week, and I quite enjoyed that.

I actually haven't seen the original of True Grit
Due to a very low tolerance for John Wayne in anything other than The Searchers. I fucking love High Society, I know it's not as good a film as The Philadelphia Story but, as you can imagine, I'm a sucker for Sinatra

no no no no no!
Bing all the way!

This is why I always maintain that Katherine Hepburn was a better actress than Grace Kelly. Hepburn had to pretend that Cary Grant was better than jimmy Stewart (hard) but Kelly had to turn down Sinatra for Crosby (easy).

I have odd taste in men. See mr b3th for details.

Hahaha
Excellent criteria. I don't think it's necessarily that tricky to maintain that Katherine Hepburn was a better actress than virtually anyone, though - and for those who dissent, I would refer them to Bringing Up Baby

Jimmy Stewart in anything is going to make a good film.
Particularly the westerns. I will always watch Shenandoah when it is on. He was a real man too, having flown in bombers during the war.
