Jimmy Stewart Film Icon And American Hero

Jimmy Stewart was one of the greatest and most popular American actors of all time.  From 1935 – 1991  he appeared in over 90 beings and television shows. His name alone drew people into theaters. Stewart’s amazing range has never fully been equaled. He was a star of both Westerns and screwball comedies, Hitchcock dramas, and classic romance films. No matter what the role, Jimmy Stewart’s talent, commitment, and decency showed through. This fast-moving, incisive multimedia biography will certainly highlight some of his greatest films.  We will only be able to talk about a sampling of his career because the sheer number of great movies made by Jimmy Stewart is amazing. Consider just these 10:

It’s a Wonderful Life

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance

The Philadelphia Story

You Can’t Take It with You

The Man Who Knew Too Much

Anatomy of a Murder

Rear Window

Vertigo

Harvey

Our presentation will not just cover Jimmy Stewart’s phenomenal film career.

We will also look at Jimmy Stewart’s heroic service in the Army Air Corps as a pilot during World War II.  At first, Stewart was concerned that his celebrity status would relegate him to promotional appearances and goodwill tours. As an experienced pilot, he wanted to serve his country in active combat. Although he entered the service as an enlistee, he was eventually promoted to brigadier general! James Stewart served bravely often flying combat missions in the most dangerous situations.  He won many awards from the military and later became a lifelong spokesman for the Air Force. We will look at his heroic service and also at the enormous physical and emotional toll it took on him.

The small-town boy turned movie star and war hero. Frank Capra could not have scripted it better!  You are you to enjoy this presentation!
