Capra’s stirring crowd-pleaser about American democracy and ideals, featuring one of Jimmy Stewart’s best roles ever. He plays Jefferson Smith, the naive head of the Boy Rangers, who gets appointed to the US Senate because the political bosses think he’ll be easy to control. When he finally comes face-to-face with political corruption, he must decide whether or not to fight. A true American classic.
