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……
(getting madder all the time) You sit around here and you spin your little webs and you think the whole world revolves around you and your money. Well, it doesn't, Mr. Potter! In the . . . in the whole vast configuration of things, I'd say you were nothing but a scurvy little spider. You . . .
He turns and shouts at the goon, impassive as ever beside Potter's wheelchair.
GEORGE (cont'd) . . . And that goes for you too!
As George opens the office door to exit, he shouts at Mr.
Potter's secretary in the outer office: GEORGE (cont'd) And it goes for you too!
WIPE TO:
INTERIOR BEDROOM �� GEORGE AND MARY'S HOUSE �� NIGHT CLOSE SHOT �� George enters the bedroom. The room is modestly furnished with just a cheap bed, a chair or two, and a dresser.
Mary is asleep in the bed. As George comes in, his head is filled with many confusing thoughts, relating to incidents in his past life.
POTTER'S VOICE You wouldn't mind living in the nicest house in town. Buying your wife a lot of fine clothes, going to New York on a business trip a couple of times a year. Maybe to Europe once in a while.
George takes off his hat and coat, moves over to the dresser and stares at his reflection in the mirror.
GEORGE'S VOICE I know what I'm going to do tomorrow and the next day and next year and the year after that. I'm shaking the dust of this crummy little town off my feet, and I'm going to see the world . . . And I'm going to build things. I'm going to build air fields. I'm going to build skyscrapers a hundred stories high. I'm going to build a bridge a mile long.
While the above thoughts are passing through George's head, his attention is caught by a picture on the wall near the dresser:
INSERT:
Picture on the wall. It is the sketch of George lassoing the moon that we first saw in Mary's living room. The lettering reads "George Lassos The Moon."
GEORGE'S VOICE What is it you want, Mary? You want the moon? If you do, just say the word; I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down for you.
Mary is now awake, and starts singing their theme song: MARY (singing) Buffalo Gals, won't you come out tonight, won't you come out tonight, won't you come out tonight.
玛丽现在醒了，开始唱他们的主题曲：玛丽（唱）水牛高尔斯，你今晚不出来吗，今晚不出来，今晚不出去吗。
George crosses over and sits on the edge of the bed.
GEORGE:
Hi.
MARY:
Hi.
GEORGE:
Mary Hatch, why in the world did you ever marry a guy like me?
MARY:
To keep from being an old maid.
GEORGE:
You could have married Sam Wainwright or anybody else in town.
MARY:
I didn't want to marry anybody else in town. I want my baby to look like you.
GEORGE:
You didn't even have a honeymoon. I promised you . . .
(does a double take) . . . Your what?
MARY:
My baby.
GEORGE (incredulously) You mean . . . Mary, you on the nest?
