* [[Executive Meddling]]: While the scene at the Martini bar was filmed, James Stewart said he was so overcome with grief while praying that he began to shed [[Manly Tears]]. Frank Capra saw the feelings for Stewart, so Capra had to reframe the shot in order to [[Closeup On Head|get it closer than was actually filmed]] because he wanted to catch an expression on Stewart's face.
* [[Hey
** Also, [[Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs (Disney)|Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs]] is now a singer at the Martini bar.
** Omnipresent character actor Charles Lane plays one of Potter's henchmen. You know, the one who warns him, "One of these days this bright young man is going to be asking George Bailey for a job!"
** Uncle Billy is [[Gone With the Wind|Gerald O'Hara]].
* [[Hey
* [[Throw It In]]: In the movie, Uncle Billy staggers away drunk from a party, you hear a crashing metal sound, and (offscreen) he calls back "I'm all right! I'm alllllllll right!". We presume that Uncle Billy stumbled into some garbage cans. In fact, the crashing noise was from a stagehand dropping equipment, and Thomas Mitchell's "I'm all right!" was an ad-lib.
** And the stagehand got a bonus.
