Welcome to the first episode of our ‘For Shame’ series, where we educate ourselves in classic films that we as a group have not seen. First up is Frank Capra’s beloved ‘Mr. Smith Goes to Washington’. Is Jimmy Stewart as lovable as ever? Does the schmaltz factor run high here like in ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’? Will we filibuster for 24 hours in podcast form?!? Stay tuned!
