STATE OF THE UNION (1948)
FRANK CAPRA
Plot
Based on Howard Lindsay's Pulitzer winning play, State Of The Union revolves around an idealistic industrial magnate's decision to enter politics and run for the presidency. Little does he realise the pressure he is about to put himself under, or the effect it will have on his estranged wife. A classic tale, beautifully performed by the two leads mixing satire and drama with perfectly judged light comedy.
