Mr. Smith Goes to Washington

 

Release Year: 1939
Review: A truly moving film about the toils of an honest man in Washington. Jimmy Stuart gives a powerful performance and creates a character you can't help but love and root for. The dialog is poignant and delivered masterfully by a superb cast. Jean Arthur especially stands out portraying the sarcastic, beaten down Washington veteran to perfection. This is a film which is timeless and should be viewed by everyone. If only there were people like Jeffry Smith in today's politics.
Rating: 5/5
