    It's A Wonderful Life is one of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen. The ending always gets me in the feels.

    In the back of my mind, I remembered "A tree grows in Brooklyn" as the punch line in a Merrie Melodies cartoon, and looked it up. Here it is:

    The Leopard Man has one of the finest scenes in all horror history. If you've seen it, you know the Mamacita scene. Terrifying to everyone I have ever shown it.
