Capra's version of Americana is just never going to click with me, but I was won over at times by this movie in spite of it all. Has some truly odd moments (tuba, donuts, etc.) but Cooper sells the hell out of it. Disappointing that it ends in a ludicrous courtroom scene, but of course it all comes together in the end. Particularly liked Jean Arthur's performance.

Paco Cinema Picture 4/5 and sound 3/5 Great film by Frank Capra in which everyone is well and together
