Dostoevsky was an excellent writer because his characters were so human, and thus easy to relate to. I find it easy to relate to Wes Anderson characters too. Pretty much any character who is real and shows that they are fully flawed is pretty easy to relate to.
One character I will never be able to relate to is George Bailey. He was an ungrateful son of a bitch. If Capra wanted to make an anti-suicide movie, he should have shown someone with a ton of problems and not much going for them why they should live.
