The whole is more comedy than "Smith", so the second half of the sermons suddenly became boring, but fortunately there is the final court scene, Dasha Dog is honestly not deceiving me (crossed out) "Heroes save the beauty" setting laughed to...

Mr. Diez and Mr. Smith must ask which movie they prefer. Mr. Diez is more relaxed and humorous, especially in the final court debate, while Mr. Smith is more serious and painful. Mr. Diez actually won quite easily, but Mr. Smith can only find out with the miraculous conscience of his opponent. The evolution of the director's mentality can be seen in general. When it comes to George Bailey, the hero can only be rescued by...

On the distance between fraternity and madness, the film is full of optimistic spirit of joining the WTO. It is one of Capra's representative works to express his utopian American dream. From this, we can see the recurring focus in many future films. For example, the small town mother. Issues (Mandrake Falls), the tradition of criticizing the news media (new version of Cinderella), the Suffering Lady (heroes save the United States), legal and political film court debates (the spirit of founding...

Mr. Deeds’s sliding stairs, whistling to hear the echo, and scratching the feet of the sculpture are all lovely, and the final self-defense is also very exciting! I feel that James Stewart's masterpiece "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" is the sister of this film, but the scores and the number of viewers of the two films are a little bit different. I prefer Gary Cooper's version of "The Hillbilly Goes to...

I personally prefer Mr. Deez to be inferior to Mr. Smith, probably except for the stage where the final court concludes the argument and jokingly joked. There are two main reasons: Capra took medicine to drive a big handsome and upright young man onto the shelves as a political and economic puppet, but never wanted to be counter-attacked. The story set in parliamentary politics is much better than rich and poor. Among the classes, it is more acceptable to the audience. Because the contradiction...

This court declares that he is the only normal person. The story and form are the predecessor of "Shadow Tycoon". Cooper's eyelashes are really long! ! ! Appeared as a stupid hillbilly. After sitting on the witness stand in court, it was like a boss. In the end, he was sinister, but he couldn't fight for integrity. It's a good...

It was originally a very interesting "get rich overnight" story, but since the female reporter got involved, it began to fall into the rut, and it got out of hand. Of course, in that era, many settings were very creative. The point is great, but I really can't stand the practice of relying on "love" to upgrade any film. Cooper's charm is...

Thoughts
After watching "Mr. Diez's Into the City", this 1936 movie is really wonderful. It is recommended to everyone in life who is regarded as a "freak". In the movie, the media deliberately cast a stranger who is out of place with the city into a madman and a laughing stock; take him to court to take...

Real best wishes
It’s an old movie from 1954, and the black-and-white picture shows a strong American comedy style, but I want to talk about the protagonist Diez.
He is a businessman in Manpu Town, he doesn't care about money, he loves to live the life he wants to live. He loves music and can play the trumpet,...

[Two shy sisters testify at Deeds's sanity hearing]
John Cedar: Do you know the defendant, Mr. Longfellow Deeds?
[long pause]
Jane Faulkner: Oh yes, yes, of course we know him.
John Cedar: How long have you known him?
[Jane whispers to Amy; Amy whispers back]
Jane Faulkner: Since he was born.
Amy Faulkner: Yes, Elsie Taggart was the midwife.
Jane Faulkner: He was a seven months' baby.
John Cedar: Thank you, that's, that's fine. Do you see him very often?
[Jane whispers to Amy; Amy whispers back]
Jane Faulkner: Most every day.
Amy Faulkner: Sometimes twice.
Judge May: Must we have the echo?
John Cedar: Suppose you just answer, Miss Jane. Now, will you tell the court what everybody at home thinks of Longfellow Deeds?
[pause; then Jane whispers to Amy; Amy whispers back]
Jane Faulkner: They think he's pixilated.
Amy Faulkner: Oh, yes, pixilated.
Judge May: He's what?
John Cedar: What was that you said he was?
Jane Faulkner: Pixilated.
Amy Faulkner: Mm-hmm.
John Cedar: Now that's rather a strange word to us, Miss Jane. Can you tell the court exactly what it means?
Court Doctor: Perhaps I can explain, Your Honor. The word "pixilated" is an early American expression derived from the word "pixies," meaning elves. They would say the pixies had got him. As we nowadays would say, a man is "balmy."
Judge May: Oh. Is that correct?
Jane Faulkner: Mm-hmm.
Amy Faulkner: Mm-hmm.

John Cedar: Your Honor, what she is saying has no bearing on the case. I object!
Judge May: Let her speak!
Babe Bennett: I know why he won't defend himself! That has a bearing on the case, hasn't it? He's been hurt, he's been hurt by everybody he met since he came here, principally by me. He's been the victim of every conniving crook in town. The newspapers pounced on him, made him a target for their feeble humor. I was smarter than the rest of them: I got closer to him, so I could laugh louder. Why shouldn't he keep quiet - every time he said anything it was twisted around to sound imbecilic! He can thank me for it. I handed the gang a grand laugh. It's a fitting climax to my sense of humor.
John Cedar: Why, Your Honor, this is preposterous.
Babe Bennett: Certainly I wrote those articles. I was going to get a raise, a month's vacation. But I stopped writing them when I found out what he was all about, when I realized how real he was. He could never fit in with our distorted viewpoint, because he's honest, and sincere, and good. If that man's crazy, Your Honor, the rest of us belong in straitjackets!
John Cedar: Your Honor, this is absurd. The woman's obviously in love with him.
Babe Bennett: What's that got to do with it?
John Cedar: Well, you are in love with him, aren't you?
Babe Bennett: What's that got to do with it?
John Cedar: You are, aren't you?
Babe Bennett: Yes!
John Cedar: Your honor, her testimony is of no value. Why shouldn't she defend him? It's the typical American womanhood. The instinct to protect the weak.
