I was watching Mr. Smith Goes To Washington today. It may be one of my favorite of Capra's films and what struck me was how complete his cinematic stories were. I was reminded about decency and goodness and how these ideal transcend race and circumstance an how with movies like this, and may others Capra put out, we are reminded how easy it is to change the world just by making small choices to do better and be better as people. How a small kindness or a good intention could be the difference between success and failure, happiness and misery, and how if we only just keep the simple ideal of goodness and decency in our spirits the rest of life would truly just fall in line. I love this film and more broadly what good films do for our souls!!!! If you haven't seen the film please check it out and the other Capra classics!
