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……

CLOSE SHOT �� George and Mary at fountain.
GEORGE:
Made up your mind yet?
MARY:
I'll take chocolate.
George puts some chocolate ice cream in a dish.
GEORGE:
With coconuts?
MARY:
I don't like coconuts.
GEORGE:
You don't like coconuts! Say, brainless, don't you know where coconuts come from? Lookit here �� from Tahiti �� Fiji Islands, the Coral Sea!
He pulls a magazine from his pocket and shows it to her.
MARY:
A new magazine! I never saw it before.
GEORGE:
Of course you never. Only us explorers can get it. I've been nominated for membership in the National Geographic Society.
He leans down to finish scooping out the ice cream, his deaf ear toward her. She leans over, speaking softly.
CLOSE SHOT �� Mary, whispering.
MARY:
Is this the ear you can't hear on? George Bailey, I'll love you till the day I die.
She draws back quickly and looks down, terrified at what she has said.
CLOSE SHOT �� George and Mary.
GEORGE:
I'm going out exploring some day, you watch. And I'm going to have a couple of harems, and maybe three or four wives. Wait and see.
He turns back to the cash register, whistling.
ANOTHER ANGLE �� taking in entrance to prescription room at end of fountain. Gower comes to the entrance. He is bleary-eyed, unshaven, chewing an old unlit cigar. His manner is gruff and mean. It is evident he has been drinking.
GOWER:
George! George!
GEORGE:
Yes, sir.
GOWER:
You're not paid to be a canary.
GEORGE:
No, sir.
He turns back to the cash register when he notices an open telegram on the shelf. He is about to toss it aside when he starts to read it.
INSERT:
THE TELEGRAM. It reads: "We regret to inform you that your son, Robert, died very suddenly this morning of influenza stop. Everything possible was done for his comfort stop. We await instructions from you."
Pres. HAMMERTON COLLEGE."
