George is a character who always does the right thing (except when he yelled at his wife and children that one time when he was at the end of his rope.) He’s so good that, when he can’t make everything good around him, he wants to throw it all in, and jump to his death in the icy river. But, this is the crux of the film – the angel Clarence jumps before George can and George, acting like he always does, dives in to save the stranger’s life. Characters with character are fascinating to observe because they are few and far between.
