No man is a failure who has friends – in the right places. Ten years after George Bailey’s life was saved by his guardian angel, things in Bedford Falls are in a tailspin of blood, booze and bad decisions: A serial killer has bodies piling up like so much bad debt at the building and loan, when Mary Bailey is found strangled in the family home. Will the town once again rally to bail out Bailey, or must George dig deeper into his prayer jar to save his business, solve his wife’s murder, and keep Clarence from throwing him off the bridge himself?

Tom Slick: Mystery Hunter chronicles the larger than life adventures of Tom Slick (Owen Wilson) and his steadfast pursuit of the unknown, culminating to one of his greatest and most mystifying expeditions: his 1958 hunt for the Yeti. Tom Slick’s epic story is told through hidden tapes found by his granddaughter Liv Slick (Schuyler Fisk) in the attic of her mother, Claire Slick (Sissy Spacek). What is a climactic tale of a legendary man and his hunt for the Yeti is, for Liv, the discovery of a grandfather whose life was largely shrouded in mystery… until now.
