Anyone watching Mr. Smith Goes to Washington?
Turner Classic Movies.

What a great movie. I'm a sucker for Frank Capra and his liberal idealistic vision of America. And still seems timely today.

1. Guess not
But if its played tonite in prime time on the West Coast it's sure worth watching.

Corny, but the parallels with today are soooooo obvious.

2. It's my 2nd favorite movie of all time!

I rank it right behind "Dr. Stangelove."

3. I'm planning on it, Armstead
We need more CAPRA in our lives

"Meet John Doe" is pretty righteous too.
