Its dark and rad, but The Long Walk is the best Bachman book dark and rad. |

Both seem to be at 6-3 in favor of keeps, if I'm not mistaken.

This pairing brought to you by Frank Capra and Jimmy Stewart:
Director: Frank Capra
Written by Frances Goodrich
, Albert Hackett Starring: James Stewart, Donna Reed Genre: Drama, Family, Fantasy
Does not appear on 2012's Sight and Sound Polls #11 on 1998's AFI Top 100
George Bailey has so many problems he is thinking about ending it all - and it's Christmas! As the angels discuss George, we see his life in flashback. As George is about to jump from a bridge, he ends up rescuing his guardian angel, Clarence - who then shows George what his town would have looked like if it hadn't been for all his good deeds over the years.
Trivia: In the post-production photo of all cast and crew, James Stewart and director Frank Capra appear twice, once on the far left and another time on the far right. As it was slow-taking panoramic pictures, they ran to the other end before the pan reached that point.
Director: Frank Capra Written by Sidney Buchman, Lewis R. Foster Starring: James Stewart, Jean Arthur Genre: Comedy, Drama
Does not appear on 2012's Sight and Sound Polls #29 on 1998's AFI Top 100
When the idealistic young Jefferson Smith (James Stewart) winds up appointed to the United States Senate, he gains the mentorship of Senator Joseph Paine (Claude Rains). However, Paine isn't as noble as his reputation would indicate, and he becomes involved in a scheme to discredit Smith, who wants to build a boys' campsite where a more lucrative project could go. Determined to stand up against Paine and his corrupt peers, Smith takes his case to the Senate floor.
Trivia: Bitterly denounced by Washington insiders angry at its allegations of corruption, yet banned by fascist states in Europe who were afraid it showed that democracy works.
My Votes: It's a Wonderful Life: Keep. Capra-corn is a misnomer, this has got some dark stuff in the alternate reality and suicide scenes. It's a classic that continues a hold over the public. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington: Cut. Alright now that I've made my case on It's a Wonderful Life, we don't need two of these. This is still quite dark in comparison to the Capra-corn image.

I enjoy both films quite a bit and generally like Capra at his best, which these films are.
But I still think we can cut both, whether it's to make way for more modern (say, 70s on) movies or more deserving pieces of classic Hollywood. We can do better.

When they call me back to the office, I'll either grow the goatee back out or go clean-shaven. |
