Seneca Falls was the site of the Seneca Falls Convention, a foundational event in the Women's Rights Movement. The town is believed by some to have been the inspiration for the fictional town of "Bedford Falls, N.Y." portrayed in filmmaker Frank Capra's classic 1940s film "It's a Wonderful Life".[6]
