The scene in the bar where Jimmy Stewart is crying and saying "please God" was originally not shot as a close up. Capra shot the scene, then asked Stewart to act the scene again for the close up shots. Stewart didn't think he could reproduce the emotion, so Capra actually blew the scene up frame-by-frame.
