About
After the death of a United States Senator, the idealistic Jefferson Smith is appointed as his replacement in Washington. The naive and earnest new senator soon finds himself battling political corruption.
An earnest, wide-eyed sincerity fuels this underdog battle against a crooked political machine. Claude Rains provides a razor-sharp foil, playing a calculating boss who makes the fight for integrity feel genuinely dangerous.
