Freedom.
August 6, 2017“Ciccio, look! Look at that! That’s the greatest light since the star of Bethlehem! That’s the light of freedom! Remember that. Freedom”
[Film creator Frank Capra immigrated to the United States when he was five-years-old, 1903. “Capra remembers the ship’s arrival in New York Harbor, where he saw ‘a statue of a great lady, taller than a church steeple, holding a torch above the land we were about to enter’, recalling his father’s exclamation at the sight.]
Some of Capra’s films include:
It’s a Wonderful Life
It Happened One Night
You Can’t Take It With You
