<p dir="auto">Here are my top 5 Frank Capra films:<br />
(I apologize in advance for my unnecessarily long reply, but once I start talking movies I get on a roll, and it is hard for me to stop<br />
)</p>
<ol>
<li>Lost Horizon (1937)<br />
~Actually this is tied with Hitchcock's "Shadow of a Doubt" for my all-time favorite film. I just love Ronald Colman in this (and, well everything!) and the tone and nature of this movie deviates from the typical Capra-esque stories that he is so well known for.</li>
<li>Lady for a Day (1933)<br />
~This is a supreme acting achievement for all the actors and actresses in this film. You fall in love with Apple Annie and her friends the moment that they appear on the screen.</li>
<li>It Happened One Night (1934)<br />
~I'm usually not a big fan of Gable (although I love Claudette Colbert), and usually like his films despite of him, but I actually really enjoy him in this film. He still reverts to typical "Gableness"<br />
once and a while, but I think this was still early enough in his career (before the "Parnell" disaster) where he could still branch out from his one-dimensional stock character that appears in most of his later films.</li>
<li>You Can't Take It With You (1938)<br />
~Every character in this film adds another layer to the comedic tension as they each get their turn to shine until it all explodes (pun intended<br />
) into the wonderful final act of this film.</li>
<li>Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)<br />
~Really I couldn't decide between this and Meet John Doe (1941), but I went with Smith due to the fact that I like James Stewart, as an actor, more than Gary Cooper, so Smith had me more engaged with the story being told in the film.</li>
</ol>

<p dir="auto">Wow, a lot of the usual suspects for choices. I'm more intrigued by his less celebrated films. My first two choices are some of my all time favorite films. I should also note all these movies had great one sheets.<br />
1.The Bitter Tea of General Yen(1933) Beautifully ethereal. Like no other film of the era.<br />
2. Broadway Bill (1934) Great tale of the underdog. Myrna Loy at her sweetest.<br />
3.Platinum Blonde(1931)Very funny. Robert Williams was an amazing talent who died too soon.<br />
<a href="http://4.It" rel="nofollow ugc">4.It</a> Happened One Night(1934) An obvious classic. Everything a comedy should be.<br />
5.Lady For A Day(1933) A Charming film with a great cast of early talkie regulars.<br />
