    Default Mr Smith Goes to Washington

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Smi..._to_Washington

    Has anyone ever watched this movie? In my opinion it is one of General Stewart's greatest movies, and one of the best movies on politics.

    Yep great movie, I wish more movies today were like the old ones. Yeah Capra's movies might seem cheesy now a days but there is just a perfect feel to them. You kinda of wish the world really did work the way they do in his movies. Of course nothing but praise for Steward.

    Yup, I had to watch it in American Government way back when I was in 9th grade. Very good movie.

    Good movie, but I personally enjoyed the Homer Simpson/Mel Gibson version a lot more.
