       TIL the 1946 film, It’s a Wonderful Life, was unsuccessful at the box office, and became a Christmas classic after its copyright expired in 1974 following a lack of renewal and it entered the public domain, which allowed it to be broadcast without licensing or royalty feeshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It%27s_a_Wonderful_Life#til #todayilearnedhttps://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/18qkjqg/til_the_1946_film_its_a_wonderful_life_was/

       @todayilearned Remember back then that interesting movies were rarely shown on TV and even then just once  - being able to see this one sort of whenever you wanted (because it was on so much) was a real surprise.

       @todayilearned And #it'sAWonderfulLife is as relevant now as it was them because the amount of effort and time needed to scrape together $5000 is still about the same...
