  • Quotes
    He (H.B. Warner) actually bloodied my ear. My ear was beat up, and my face was red and I was in tears......I didn't know what we were building for. H.B. was perfect. He reached the crescendo. At the end, when it was all over, he was very lovable. He grabbed me and hugged me, and he meant it (On filming the scene in It's a Wonderful Life (1946) where young George Bailey tells pharmacist Mr. Gower that he mistakenly dispensed poison).
