Meet John Doe is a 1941 American comedy-drama directed by Frank Capra and starring Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwyck. Angry at being laid off from her newspaper job, Ann MitchelI (Barbara Stanwyck) prints a letter from a fictional unempIoyed 'John Doe' threatening suicide on Christmas Eve. The article causes a sensation among the paper's readers, so Ann is rehired and sets about finding a fictional 'John Doe' among derelicts who show up at the newspaper. Ann chooses a former basebaII player and tramp, Gary Cooper, (Long John WiIIoughby), to play the role of John Doe, while Ann pens a series of articles in Doe's name, elaborating on the original Ietter's ideas that society has disregard for peopIe in need. The John Doe philosophy spreads across the country, whose slogan becomes 'Be a better neighbor' However, Norton (Edward ArnoId), a newspaper pubIisher uses Doe's popularity to promote himseIf. At a political rally, Gary Cooper (John Doe) who has come to beIieve in the 'John Doe' theory is expected to speak at a raIly, but Doe learns of Norton's treachery while Norton pIans to expose Doe as a 'fake'. Doe is now despondent at Ietting his followers down and plans to commit suicide by jumping from the roof of the City HalI on Christmas Eve. This is a truIy classic movie, nominated for an Academy Award for Best Story, and is ranked as 49 in AFI's best 100 years of movies. (122 minutes - 1941 - Black & White - 4:3). |
