	Mr. Smith Goes to Washington - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The film was directed by Frank Capra, who also directed James Stewart in It's a Wonderful Life, and was written by Lewis R. Foster and Sidney Buchman.
		It has been deemed "culturally significant" by the Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry.
		In the spring of 2005, U.S. media attention over the "nuclear option" focused extra attention on what was already the melodramatic climax of the film, when Smith launches a lengthy and defiant filibuster.

		Director Frank Capra took Sidney Buchman, the chief screenwriter for the film, and traveled to Washington in October of 1938 before the filming of the movie began to take in the sights and sounds of Washington to aid them in creating the film.

		Despite the controversy created by government officials, the film was very popular at the box office and it made James Stewart and Jean Arthur stars.

	goatdog's movies - The Talk of the Town, 1942
		Aside from a couple of perfunctory kisses and a series of events that ends in Miss Shelley wearing Lightcap's pajamas, romance is eschewed in favor of a mix of verbal and physical comedy and a surprising amount of serious discussion of the way the world works.
		The dialog, by Irwin Shaw and Oscar-winner Sidney Buchman, perfectly showcases Grant's comic irritability, Colman's dry, musing delivery, and Arthur's delightfully silly squeak of a voice; it also gives Grant and Colman some pretty meaty concepts to chew on, especially in the context of a 1940s romantic comedy.
		The film was nominated for seven Oscars but failed to win any: Picture, Original Story (Sidney Harmon), Screenplay (Buchman and Shaw), Original Dramatic or Comedic Score, Editing, Black and White Cinematography (Ted Tetzlaff), and Art Direction-Interior Decoration.

		It is based on the play by Harry Segall and is scripted by Sidney Buchman and Seton Miller.
		Boxer Joe Pendleton (Robert Montgomery) is rescued from a plane crash in New Jersey by an overzealous angel (Edward Everett Horton) before his time was really up and is taken to Heaven.
		But the film is not without a quaint charm in parts, though its afterlife visions are more or less the dullish Hollywood ones that comically rely mostly on reaction shots to the odd situation.

		Max Wilk, an esteemed writer himself, admits "dignity for screenwriters is long overdue." That's why he has assembled this insightful homage to the men and women whose words created the foundation for our best and most-loved films.
		He talked to writers like Sidney Buchman, Edward Chodorov, R.C. Sherriff, Benn Levy, John Collier, Billy Wilder, Donald Ogden Sewart, Albert and Frances Hackett, Harold Bloom, and profiled others like Arthur Caesar, Ben Hecht, Preston Sturges, and Harry Kurnitz.
		And, while some of the "conversations" are very interesting (e.g., Arthur Caesar, Sidney Buchman) some are mere nonsensical snippets that had me wondering why they were included.

	The Group Film Review - Time Out Film (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Basically soap opera, but a beautifully crafted and brilliantly acted adaptation of Mary McCarthy's novel chronicling the fortunes of eight Vassar graduates, class of '33, up to the beginning of World War II.
		Sidney Buchman's script does a remarkable tailoring job on the book, pruning away all the fat and cutting the rest into hundreds of sharp little scenes which are pieced together as an attractively witty mosaic of the decade.
		Should the lengthy array of amorous hopes and disillusionments threaten boredom, there's always Boris Kaufman's wonderfully handsome camerawork to admire.

	: The Howards of Virginia - DVD film (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		With its straightforward retelling of events leading up to the American Revolution, The Howards of Virginia is a standard slice of patriotism from Hollywood's golden age.
		Adapted by noted screenwriter Sidney Buchman from Elizabeth Page's 1939 bestseller Tree of Liberty, this colonial melodrama is notorious for saddling Cary Grant with one of his most ill-fitting roles, and it's true that Grant's 20th-century style clashes with his portrayal of buckskinned rebel Matt Howard.
		Still, his performance is far from being "really bad" (as critic Pauline Kael harshly opined), and Martha Scott brings tenacious dignity to her role as Howard's pragmatic wife, who defies her aristocratic family to join her new husband in the wilderness of Ohio.
