We have moved from Jimmy Stewart's It's a Wonderful Life 1947
to
and various versions of a Christmas Carol, my favorite has Rich Little in the main roles.
For a replacement and update I suggest The Family Man Sucessful Wall Street Banker Nick Cage has it all, the scene featuring his closet in the Manhattan condo is alone worth watching the movie, he drives a Ferrari 456, does big deals on Wall Street, is a bachelor with gorgeous gals aplenty and then
he wakes up in New Jersey with his girl friend played by Tea Leoni, from 13 years ago. Now he is a Dad with to two kids, drives a mini vand sells tires in his Father in Law's store. And don't miss the cameo played by Don Cheadle introducing Nick to his alternate life that might have been.
It is the classic story of a parallel life not lived. Check it out.
