But the shock was priceless when she saw it was Stewart playing some folksy song on the piano in his inimitable way. Would love to see that clip again, although my search through youtube has turned up nothing.

I also came to evaluate him in a serious way much later in life. Having recently viewed "It's A Wonderful Life" for the first time, it is evident that Stewart could stand and deliver a many-layered performance and was not just a star, but an actor in the best sense of the term. Thanks again for the insight! I’m very appreciative of your retrospective on Jimmy Stewart. I also came to evaluate him in a serious way much later in life.
