Frank Capra’s seminal holiday classic It’s a Wonderful Life is as much about protagonist and all-around good man George Bailey as it is about the mechanics of the small town he lives in, Bedford Falls. But while Bedford Falls is ostensibly a fictional place, one village in New York insists that their municipality is the inspiration behind it, NPR reports. Seneca Falls is perhaps best known as the site of the 1848 Seneca Falls Convention, a landmark event in the history of women’s rights in America.
