Description
Frank Capra’s immortal Hollywood classic It’s a Wonderful Life tells the story of an ordinary man’s descent into despair and his triumphant emergence. By re-examining this beloved film through the lens of Joseph Campbell’s idea of the Hero’s Journey we’ll gain a renewed appreciation of the deeply soulful power of great storytelling, and learn why Campbell says that “each of us is the hero of our own lives.” Amazon Prime members can view the film for free – recommended before the lecture. (60 minute presentation, 30 minute Q&A) Link to film on Amazon Prime: https://www.amazon.com/Wonderful-Life-Black-White-Version/dp/B001M432XA
