I find myself loving this the most when it’s unapologetically critical of capitalism, but find that year after year, I do not gel with the ending. Not so much that George realizes his impact on his community nor his epiphany that what truly matters is his family— I loathe the last minute rally from the community to save George and effectively thrust him back into the capitalist world he so desperately wanted to escape.
Obviously, this movie is existing immediately…

We need to stop have “Is Die Hard a Christmas movie” discourse, because it very obviously is.
