1939, 125 minutes, Rated G
An idealistic, 'small town' senator heads to Washington and suddenly finds himself single-handedly battling ruthless politicians in this award-winning 1939 classic, from legendary director FRANK CAPRA.
JEAN ARTHUR, JAMES STEWART (in the role that cemented him as the archetypal common man and scored him his first Oscar-nomination) and CLAUDE RAINS lead the superb cast of this brilliantly directed gem from the Golden Age - a film that was acclaimed as "the best Hollywood picture of the year (Nation)" and is a great cinematic achievement that has, over more than sixty years, lost none of its magic or its relevance.
