Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is a 1939 drama film directed by Frank Capra about one man's effect on the American government. Nominated for 11 Academy Awards -- it won Best Screenplay -- the film made James Stewart a major movie star. The film also starred Jean Arthur and featured a bevy of well-known supporting actors, among them Claude Rains, Edward Arnold, Guy Kibbee, Charles Lane, and Thomas Mitchell. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington was written by Sidney Buchman, based on Lewis R. Foster's novel, The Gentleman from Montana, although the state is only mentioned once in the movie.

When a ban on American films was imposed in German-occupied France in 1942, some theaters chose to show Mr. Smith Goes to Washington as the last movie before the ban went into effect. One theater owner in Paris reportedly screened the film nonstop for 30 days after the ban was announced.
