Sadly, the sound remains in mono. Even a stereo mix would have been appreciated, as the audio does sound dated. It’s flat and doesn’t come alive as it should if the time was taken to fully restore it.

Besides the usual theatrical trailer, there are two short features on the making of the film. The first is a "Making Of" hosted by Tom Bosley and it aired on network TV back in 1990. It runs about 22 minutes, covering all aspects of the film, including the origins and the three scripts Frank Capra was given. It's a bit on the cheesy side, but you'll still learn about how the film came together.

Frank Capra Jr. hosts the second, though most of the information here is regurgitated if you watched the first "Making Of." Some archival interviews with Capra Sr. and James Stewart make this worth watching. These same extras were contained on the first release back in 2001. Nothing has been added.

This is one required inclusion in any film collection. It's not just a holiday classic (there’s little "holiday" in it), but a true American one. Never mind the fact that it was a box office flop. Some people obviously missed this one initially and since we still talk about it, this one has clearly proved its worth.
