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……

MARY (cont'd) Oh, thank you, Mrs. Welch. I'm sure she'll be all right. The doctor says that she ought to be out of bed in time to have her Christmas dinner.
GEORGE:
Is that Zuzu's teacher?
MARY (hand over receiver) Yes.
GEORGE:
Let me speak to her.
He snatches the phone from Mary.
GEORGE (cont'd) (on phone) Hello. Hello, Mrs. Welch? This is George Bailey. I'm Zuzu's father. Say, what kind of a teacher are you anyway? What do you mean sending her home like that, half-naked? Do you realize she'll probably end up with pneumonia on account of you?
MARY (shocked) George!
She puts a restraining hand on his arm. He shakes it off. She cannot know that George's tirade against Mrs. Welch is really a tirade against the world, against life itself, against God. Over the phone we hear Mrs.
Welch's voice sputtering with protest.
GEORGE:
Is this the sort of thing we pay taxes for �� to have teachers like you? Silly, stupid, careless people who send our kids home without any clothes on?
You know, maybe my kids aren't the best-dressed kids; maybe they don't have any decent clothes . . .
Mary succeeds in wresting the phone from George's hand.
GEORGE (cont'd) Aw, that stupid . . .
Mary speaks quickly in to the phone.
MARY:
Hello, Mrs. Welch. I want to apologize . . . hello . . . hello .
. .
(to George) She's hung up.
GEORGE (savagely) I'll hang her up!
But the telephone is suddenly alive with a powerful male voice
calling:
MR. WELCH'S VOICE Now, who do you think you are?
George hears this and grabs the receiver from Mary.
GEORGE (to Mary) Wait a minute.
(on phone) Hello? Who is this? Oh, Mr. Welch? Okay, that's fine, Mr. Welch. Gives me a chance to tell you what I really think of your wife.
Mary once more tries to take the phone from him.
MARY:
George . . .
