Mr. Smith Goes to Washington was an amazing black and white movie! It really caught my attention. The way I will be telling you about the story is in like different parts in the movie. The parts that I liked alot.
Mr. Smith was asked to be a senate, but mr. Smith was not familiar with with how to be a senate. So he accepted the offer and they sent him to Washigton D.C. When Mr. Smith was in D.C. he was amazed with all the statues and memorials. He was like a little boy in a candy shop. Funny to say, Mr. Smith acted like me whe I was in Washin ton D.C. The only difference was with me, I kept my cool and tried to hid my excitment so nobody thought I was a total freak.
The Lincoln memorial was his favorite memorial. He went there multiple times. One time he went, there was a boy who was reading the words on the walls. The words touched Mr. Smith and many other people who were around. He also looked at the statue too.
Then they showed them at Smith’s first time at the Supreme Court. He was very nervous because it was a pretty big place. A young boy showed him where to sit and helped him out alot. Mr. Smith asked to boy to explain to him everything about the Supreme Court. Everything the boy said was what out tour guide said to us when we were in the capitol for our tour.
There were all kinds of newspaper men all over town who did not like Mr. Smith at all. All they did was write alot of lies about Mr. Smith. After Mr. Smith found out about the lies about himself he started punching people. lol. Anyways, he got to talk with them and got to see what they were really about. They tried to get Mr. Smiths spirit down, but all it did was make it stronger. He then decided to make a Bill. To start a boys camp for all kinds of boys.
Mr. Smith had a personal secretary name Ms. Clarissa Sanders. At first she was about to go crazy with him, but then got to know the real Mr. Smith. She helped him write the Bill and even helped him present the Bill in the Supreme Court. When he made the speak he was very nervous. His vioce was shaky and so was his hands. But he did not back down, and he succesfully finished his speak with a bang
In the meantime, there was this other lady named Susan. Susan was Mr. Paynes daughter. She was as you can say the cats meow to Mr. Smith. He was taken away with her beauty, but I think the Ms. Sanders was way prettier. Anyways Mr. Payne knew that there was goin g to be a dam where Mr. Smith wanted to put the boys camp, but there was a special meeting that was going to discuss everything about it. So Mr. Payne got his daughter to go out with her that night so Mr. Smith would not hear about the dam and stuff. So Mr. Smith and Ms. Sanders are in his office, and Mr. Smith was telling Ms. Sanders how thankful he was for her, but then the phone rang. It was Mr. Susan. She was calling to ask Mr. Smith about dinner, and he said yes. So poor Ms. Sanders gets all upset because she realizes that she secretaly has a crush on him. She goes out with a friend and they have a little too much to drink. Finally they get back to the office because she wants to gather up all of her belongings, and Mr. Smith was there. He hears her some in and they start to talk. It was not a really good talk, but then Ms. Sanders starts to tell him about how Mr. Payne knew there is going to be a dam right where he wanted to put the boys camp. Then she said ” Why do you think Susan asked you to go out with her. So you would not go to there meeting and hear about there plan”. Then she leaves.
Mr. Smith goes to his favorite thinking place, the Linlcon memorial. He is so confused and he does not know what to do. Then guess who shows up?? Ms. Sanders does. She told him, ” I thought you would be here.” So she helped him again with everything. Mr. Payne realized what he did was wrong. Then that is all =]
You wouldn’t have looked like a freak if you showed all your emotions. There’s nothing freaky about that.
