Over half a century since its initial release, Frank Capra's Meet John Doe remains an incredibly powerful motion picture, thanks to not only Capra, but to a great cast and a powerful narrative.But, despite its widespread popularity, Capra was never really satisfied with the ending, which he felt had been dictated by the fact that he and screenwriter Robert Riskin had written themselves into a corner.
With its close parallel to the Christ tale, Meet John Doe practically mandated that Gary Cooper give up his life to resurrect the "John Doe" mov | | |
