Did you know?
That the final scene of It's a Wonderful LIfe, had Uncle Billy falling to his knees and reciting the Our Father, joined by the rest of the crowd in the Bailey house. This was eliminated, one of the reasons being that British censors would not allow the "Lord's Prayer" in any movie.

The word's jerk and impotent were unacceptable.
Heaven was to be substituted for God.

Those were the days.
(I mean, would George's despairing rage at Uncle Billy have been more powerful if he had been allowed to say, "Where's the f*****g money, you dumb s**t f******g old dumbf***k?)
