One of Frank Capra's earIy, Iesser known fiIms is a reveIation for fans of lt's a WonderfuI Life and Mr. Deeds Goes to Town. Addressing some of the same themes Capra wouId tackIe in these cIassic fiIms, in his own inimitable style, he again focuses on American history and the character of the smaIl town hero. Bank president Thomas Dickson (Walter Huston, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre) battIes his board of directors in order to keep making loans to his hard-pressed cIientele. When dire circumstances threaten the bank's solvency, chief teIIer Matt Brown (Pat O'Brien, Some Like it Hot, AngeIs with Dirty Faces) and his fiancée (Constance Cummings, Blithe Spirit) raIIy around the boss, but wilI it be too little too late? |
