Drum Roll Please

Mr Smith Goes to Washington



Joins my list of Favorite Movies, which include Life is Beautiful, Amazing Grace, Ocean's Eleven, The Matrix, Independence Day and Jodhaa Akbar. And probably more than I can recall.

As you can tell, I can't make up my mind!

But seriously, this film made me laugh and cry. Jimmy Stewart and Jean Arthur were just terrific. Frank Capra (the director) is a genius. Watching the film made me think back on my time in D.C. and I confess that the transition back to "real life" has been very difficult. Thank goodness I have my friends here- Provo would be unbearable if it wasn't for them!

Watch this if you can get hold of a copy of it. It is simply wonderful!
