Potter the ruthless foe shines in its Wonderful Life 75th year
Lionel Barrymore’s Mr Potter dominates the film as the greedy town magnate in Frank Capra’s It is a Wonderful Life. The 1946 classic marks 75 years with Potter’s power lust and blasé cruelty fueling George Bailey’s crises and Bedford Falls’ fall into Pottersville. Barrymore’s iconic performance remains a benchmark in screen villainy.
