Speaking of Uncle Billy, one of the funniest parts of the movie was an ad-lib from Billy’s portrayer, Thomas Mitchell. After Uncle Billy ties one on at the engagement party and George points him home, there’s a loud crash off-screen. In actuality, someone accidentally knocked some props over while filming was going on. Mitchell saved the scene by quipping, “I’m all right! I’m all right!” Capra found it so funny that he kept it in the film.
Too funny!
