It is also often quoted that psychiatrists would recommend It's a Wonderful Life to patients suffering from depression. This was because it was such a well known feel-good movie, and it generated positive results. However contemporary psychiatrists would probably scoff at this idea (since in many cases of depression, chemical imbalances are its cause), but in the Special Edition video, this theory is quoted.
