Reply to comment by joculator in TIL the guy who played Nick the bartender in "It's a Wonderful Life," Sheldon Leonard, became one of the most successful TV producers in history, having created the Andy Griffith Show, Dick Van Dyke, among many others. As a tribute, the two main characters on "Big Bang Theory" were named after him. by latchkey_adult

It's hilarious that an Italian guy played an Indian upset about pollution and everyone bought it. It's beyond funny.

It was an anti-littering PSA, not a documentary, and played by a guy that was familiar to audiences at the time. Btw, Smokey the bear was also a fraud.
