Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)
Believe the hype about this one!
23 July 2018 - 4 out of 5 users found this review helpful.
The only reason this isn't a 10/10 in my book is that I wish there had been more closure; Smith finding out about his victory, meeting with Saunders, Taylor's downfall, etc. But overall... Every time Capra and Stewart get together, it's magic (even more so when Jean Arthur is the leading lady). And this is no exception! Even nearly 80 years later, the story is a breath of fresh air, and incredibly gripping. I couldn't look away for a moment when it came down to the courtroom scenes at the end. It's a tremendous movie - it truly deserves its high rating. If you get a chance to see it, don't miss it!
