Review of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) by Laura A — 01 Apr 2009
There are good movies. And then there are....Really Good Movies. Unbelievably good. The kind of thing where they contain every "cliche" of storytelling but are still somehow new and surprising.
The kind of movie where you're sobbing and you don't even know why. They kind of movie that surpasses analysis and goes to a deeper level than most trite philosophical summations...the culmination of all that filmmaking can be, something larger than itself, a beautiful intangible flickering light that gets into your soul.
This. Is one such movie.
