Review of Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936) by Deke P — 02 Dec 2016
Mr. Deeds Goes to Town is a pretty standard Frank Capra film. It's a simple story with likeable characters and an obvious moral of the story. Gary Cooper does a swell job of portraying Longfellow Deeds and Jean Arthur is absolutely charming.
This is definitely more serious than the 2002 remake, but it's a well-made movie with plenty of heart.
