#116 Frank Capra
Ranked ListOne of my favorite directors, as proven by the many reviews I've already posted in his thread. There's also the one deeply unpopular opinion of my not liking It's a Wonderful Life. (Not hating, just not liking.) In exchange, I have two obscure Capra title among my Essentials - Ladies of Leisure and American Madness - which brings Capra's total Essentials up to 7.
So, I'm good with watching more Capra, except most of what I have is from his really early days, titles like
Long Pants (1927),
The Matinee Idol (1928) and
The Power of the Press (1928). There is also
Broadway Bill (1934), which Capra later remade as Riding High. It stars Myrna Loy, so I'll definitely take a look at that one.
