    Except for the moment when the two people changed, it was all good, it was still an era of innocence, although I didn't think his speech was convincing...

    Stewart is really best suited to play this kind of upright and kind-hearted young man in a small town with lofty aspirations. Good qualities such as humility, cuteness, and honesty are almost all engraved on the...

    As a strong contrast with Jimmy's friend Henry Fonda's 12 Angry Men, they represent the presentation of American idealism in the legislative and judicial...

    I love James Stewart~! ! ! The first movie of the 1930s that made me feel very excited, and I still think it is very good. Of course = = Maybe I watched too few movies at that...

    The film is like a political fairy tale, hot-blooded and idealistic. The male protagonist is too young too simple, sometimes naïve. He was played badly by American reporters who always wanted to make big news, but in the end, it was his stupid persistence that won him the victory. Although it is an adaptation of a true story, it still lacks a little convincing in the...

    I feel like the director didn't think about how to start filming at the end, the ending was too rubbish, and the silver knight's transformation was too...

    Teenagers are the pillars of the country, and the society hopes ah~~ The sense of comedy is not strong, and it is interesting that JS is seduced to the point of dropping his hat. In the end, the reunion found by conscience is abruptly reversed, and the spiritual victory method, Capra is really too provocative, and the climax at the end always has to be baked, the main theme of the United States! The setting of the Senate and the audience has a sense of film mechanics. In the whole movie, JS was...

    I don't think I can say anything. . . Jimmy Stewart is so handsome in the final parliamentary scene - the final duel of a desperate Don Quixote. Although the movie gave hope at the end, it is still a movie full of despair. How many bad guys can we hope to find out in good conscience, and how many Jeff Smiths can be found innocent? (Finally, Jimmy is so tender at this...

    This is an adult world, and you have to let go of your ideals at the door.

    "This is an adult world. You have to put down your ideals outside the door, just like your rain boots. Thirty years ago, I also had your ideals. I used to be you, and I also faced decisions like you today. I made a decision, I compromised, so I can sit on the legislature and serve the public in a...

    This is a fable

    On the surface, this is a story about American politics, but in fact, the film uses the Capitol story to express not only politics, but also life and beliefs. However, from a political perspective, this truth is clearer and more shocking. Using politics as the carrier of fables is destined...

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington quotes

  • Chick McGann: Relax, Happy. Stop havin' kittens.

  • Senator Joseph Paine: Jim, suppose we don't try to go through with this Dam? Suppose we postpone it until next session of Congress? Or, drop it altogether?

    James Taylor: Oh, that'd be a crime, Joe. After all the work we've put in on it? Getting buried in this Deficiency Bill - as nicely as you please. Having it approved. It's rolling along. It was like taking candy from a baby.

    Senator Joseph Paine: Is it worth the risk of a scandal?
