| | Congressman Murtha's Tribute to Jimmy Stewart (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27) |
 | | Jimmy Stewart had so much integrity and credibility that I don't thing anyone else in Hollywood could have been more effective in arguing the case against colorization. |
 | | In fact, young Jimmy Stewart, the son of a school teacher and a hardware store owner, had very much the lifestyle of that character in "It’s a Wonderful Life," and might have inherited his father’s business and lived out much the same fate in that little rural coal mining town. |
 | | Jimmy Stewart was a classic among classics in our cultural history: boy scout, war hero, patriot, gentleman, larger-than-life entertainer, writer, small-town family man, and great friend. |
