Jimmy Stewart and Jefferson Smith have the same initials.

Thanks Captain Obvious.

Just saying.

1939 was an amazing year for Hollywood. GONE WITH THE WIND, THE WIZARD OF OZ, MR. SMITH and two years later, CITIZEN KANE. When Clark Gable first saw KANE he said, “I guess I’ll have to go back and do those lousy A pictures again.”

I think this film is even more relevant today than back then.
GRETA GARBAGE (3 years ago)
Thanks Captain Obvious.

Greta Garbage, You’re getting on my nerves with the Captain Obvious shit.

Just like today. The liberals want to help people, the conservatives want to make money.
NURSE HATCHET (2 1/2 years ago)
Yeah, like libtards don’t wanna make money. The Clintons went from having a few thousand dollars in the bank when they first arrived at the White House, to now having a combined total of almost half a billion dollars, or something. You’re silly.

Like Trump won’t make money on the Presidency. That’s the only reason he ran.

Leave The Donald alone, or I’ll have you snuffed!

No more talk like that, please. Let’s get back to talking about the movie or I’ll pull the plug on this whole deal.
NURSE HATCHET (2 1/2 years ago)
You’ll pull the plug? This is YouTube, buster. Nobody pulls the plug on YouTube… R. Brooks Williams, I think you have delusions of grandeur.

Watch me pull the plug, Nurse Hatchet.

I heard a story about Iggy Pop watching MR. SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON. He was so riveted by Jimmy Stewart’s performance that he put off going to an interview with a prospective record company exec. Iggy was willing to throw his career away on one of the best movies of all time!

I love the scene where Stewart is talking and nobody in the Senate is listening to him. Except out in the audience in the movie theater—everybody is listening to him! It reminds me of REAR WINDOW, where in some scenes Jimmy is maybe yawning or scratching an itch in his leg cast—and maybe nonchalantly looking out his window at the apartment building across the courtyard. But in the audience everybody is scanning each window with laser beam eyes!

Jean Arthur is so underrated. I loved her in A FOREIGN AFFAIR. A lot of people thought that Dietrich crushed her in that, and just took over the movie—but I think Jean held her own. 1930s film actresses were so sharp and funny and fast-talking and intelligent and feminist—before the word was invented.

Like Rosalind Russell and Kate Hepburn and Joan Blondell.
OH BROTHER, WHERE FART THOU? (1 1/2 years ago)
Frank Capra is my favorite filmmaker. Every Christmas I don’t watch IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE; I watch A POCKETFUL OF MIRACLES instead. It gets me every time! (LOL)

Oh Brother, Where Fart Thou? —You have great taste, my friend. My Number 1 Capra is MR. DEEDS GOES TO TOWN with Gary Cooper. The opening shot is riveting, (literally and figuratively—LOL)
INTERNATIONAL ULTRAVIOLET (1 year ago)
Why do they call Capra’s themes— ‘Capra Corn’? I’d like to live in one of his films. So much better than what we have now.
TAILS OF HOFFMAN (1 year ago)
You’d like to live in IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE? Mr. Potter has taken over the whole town. Most people don’t have a pot to grow petunias in. There’s some love there, I guess. And they helped Jimmy at the end with their last remaining dollars—but what about tomorrow? Everybody will be going to Potter on their hands and knees.

I’d like to hang out with Uncle Billy (LMAO).
TRUMP THE TRAMP (6 months ago)
What we have now with Trump is a zillion times worse than what Jimmy Stewart was fighting against in MR. SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON…I posted a comment on Facebook, calling Trump “trash—but I used a color before the word trash. Can you guess the color? Anyways, they took it off, saying we need to be respectful. Respectful? I have friends who call Trump every name under the sun, from Pedophile to Nazi to Satan! And its totally creepy having somebody at FB reading everything I write to friends. Its way beyond Big Brother and 1984.
