What on Earth has age got to do with it?
Would an example make a difference for you? Just five years ago I'd have said this:
Perhaps for somebody who has ever considered jumping off a bridge on a snowy wintry night after being punched in the face by a teacher's husband. Not for me.
Now I whole heartedly agree with this:
Imagine having all kinds of dreams and getting so close to them that you can taste them. Then imagine those dreams being pulled away from right in front of you at the last minute. THAT'S frustration!! That's George Bailey!
Younger people mostly have not had that frustration, while older folk have had that disappointing taste cross their life path once or twice.
That is how age makes a difference. I hope your dreams never being taken away from you but in case it happened to you too, you just might be able to identify with this movie.
