==Biography==
It is Christmas Eve, and George Bailey, facing financial ruin and disgrace, is contemplating suicide. Two celestial beings observing this decide to send an angel to assist. Unfortunately, the only angel available is Clarence Odbody, AS2 (Angel Second Class), who after 200 years has yet to win his wings. To prepare for this assignment he is shown several vignettes from George's life, that portray various selfless acts on the part of Bailey. Clarence finds George standing on a bridge and jumps in the water himself, prompting George to jump in and rescue him.〔(Synopsis for "It's a Wonderful Life", IMDb ) Retrieved 09-16-2015〕
Clarence introduces himself as they are drying out in the tollhouse keeper's shack. When George expresses a wish that he had never been born, Clarence grants his wish to demonstrate what the world would be like if George had never existed. Among other unexpected effects of his ill-considered wish, his brother Harry would have drowned as a child, as George was not there to save him. As George comes to realize the positive effects he has had on others' lives, he regrets his hasty wish, and Clarence restores him to his previous life.〔("AFI's Top 10", American Film Institute )〕
As George now appreciates his life, despite its difficulties, Clarence wins his wings.〔
