Part 05: Pottersville

from George Bailey Was Never Born · host iHeartPodcasts

If western New York's Seneca Falls is the “real Bedford Falls,” then what can that town tell us about what happened to the people of that place in It's a Wonderful Life? We come to know real corollaries of the beloved characters from that movie today, learning about their hopes and struggles, and discovering much about the state of small-town America. Seneca Falls is filled with citizens who might remind you of characters from your favorite holiday movie. We come to know a major employer and the mayor, high school buddies in the vein of George Bailey and Sam Wainwright who have playfully fought over how best to navigate the future of the post-industrial town. A Bert-like cop, a Violet Bick-like hairdresser and a Nick-like bartender take us up-close inside locals’ experiences. A journalist who returns with his mother to her hometown comes away sure he’s missed a big story about the American small-town.

Barnum.Some laws teach the need for prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”).
