When I finished this movie, I couldn’t believe I had never seen it before. The movie is seventy years old and just as relevant today.

I loved so much about this movie. I was sold fairly early on, when, upon arriving in Washington, Mr. Smith goes around the city, visiting the National Archives and monuments. When he announced he planned to take a trip out to Mount Vernon before starting his first day in the Senate, I was in love.

I think we could use a few Jefferson Smiths today. (And no doubt Hollywood could use a few Jimmy Stewarts as well)

Again another great Jimmy Stewart Movie! This is the way Politics should be! Sweet, heartwarming, and beautiful movie!

i wish we had a Mr. Smith today

I like the way movies back in the day didn’t have to have the “loose ends tied up” all pretty in a bow at the end. The ending was stark, but necessary I think.
