It seems that it is easy to get excited and often use "Ahhhh!!!" to express my excitement. When I was watching <>, I saw Mr. Smith, played by James Stewart, impassionedly denounced the politics of the week in Parliament. When there were all kinds of corruption and shady scenes, my heart couldn't help surging with Smith's advance and retreat. "Ahhhh!!!"
Like Frank Capra's usual reunion, the film finally fell into the Happy Ending ending as usual. To be honest, If it weren't for this abrupt ending, the film's artistic appeal would have been even better. Senator Paine's final remorse was abrupt enough. It gave the impression of a hasty ending. Compared to its other film In the work <>, the finale of the "Wall of Jericho" collapsed is very different.
In fact, what does American politics have to do with us? Not to mention what happened 80 years ago. But in the film I still have a lot of feelings for some of the short-to-the-point clips, Senator Paine controlling public opinion and wanton slandering Smith. The Boy Scouts were devastated by stubborn forces, the people's march was suppressed by the police with water cannons... how familiar it is.
If not Because of Paine's sudden remorse, all Smith's efforts were in vain. The political machine of the capitalists continued to operate. Smith's type of success can only exist in fairy tales.
Bit by bit.
Fortunately, we still have fairy tales.
