乔治(詹姆斯•斯图尔特 James Stewart 饰)在圣诞节前准备自杀,这时上帝传来旨意,派天使拯救他,并让他了解到自己一生的使命——拯救那些不幸的人。乔治小时候左耳有疾,在贝德福德镇上的一家药店帮工。他很机灵,深得老板器重,同时也很招女孩喜欢。某日,老板接到爱子死亡的电报,悲痛欲绝,配错了药,幸亏乔治才化险为夷。乔治从小嫉恶如仇,尤其看不惯富人专横跋扈。长大后,乔治一表人才,准备去读大学。这时,他的父亲去世了,他子承父业,协助叔父料理公司事务。然而公司经营状况不佳,在董事会会议上面临破产。如果公司破产,小镇将会有很多家庭陷入困境。乔治力排众议,说服了董事会,但是条件是他要担任董事会秘书长。这与他的大学梦相去甚远。而且,此时他还陷入了对一个女孩的爱恋之中……

GEORGE:
What is this, Uncle Billy? A holiday?
UNCLE BILLY:
George . . .
He points to George's office. George turns back cheerfully to the crowd.
GEORGE:
Come on in, everybody. That's right, just come in.
George vaults over the counter.
GEORGE (cont'd) Now look, why don't you all sit down. There are a lot of seats over there. Just make yourselves at home.
UNCLE BILLY:
George, can I see you a minute?
The people ignore George and remain standing in front of the teller's window. They all have their passbooks out. George hurries into his office where Uncle Billy is waiting for him.

GEORGE:
Why didn't you call me?
UNCLE BILLY:
I just did, but they said you left. This is a pickle, George, this is a pickle.
GEORGE:
All right now, what happened? How did it start?
UNCLE BILLY:
How does anything like this ever start? All I know is the bank called our loan.
GEORGE:
When?
UNCLE BILLY:
About an hour ago. I had to hand over all our cash.
GEORGE:
All of it?
UNCLE BILLY:
Every cent of it, and it still was less than we owe.
GEORGE:
Holy mackerel!
UNCLE BILLY:
And then I got scared, George, and closed the doors. I . . . I .
. . I . . .
GEORGE:
The whole town's gone crazy.
The telephone rings. Uncle Billy picks it up.
UNCLE BILLY:
Yes, hello? George . . . it's Potter.
GEORGE:
Hello?
