Along with
Karolyn Grimes, he holds the distinction of appearing in two holiday classics:
It's a Wonderful Life (1946) and
The Bishop's Wife (1947). In the former, he plays the young George Bailey - played as an adult by
James Stewart - and in the latter, he plays one of the boys who initially teases Debby (played by Grimes), before ultimately accepting her due to some help from Dudley (
Cary Grant).
