| Barbara Stanwyck and Gary Cooper in "Meet John Doe" (1941) |
When new owners buy the newspaper, reporter Barbara Stanwyck gets the axe because her column has no "fireworks". She decides her last column is going to be a real zinger, so she fakes a suicide note from "John Doe", who plans to jump off city hall to protest the lack of jobs. The mayor's wife gets incensed and insists he contact John Doe and offer him a job, or else! The newspaper owner now has to track down Barbara who informs him that she made it all up. Cornered, they have to find a "John Doe" who can play the role, keeping circulation up with his life story, and also preventing their competitor paper from declaring them a fraud. Gary Cooper, unemployed and homeless fits the bill.
A truly great movie with a simple but interesting message, and great performances. Five stars.Double Indemnity (1944), starring Fred MacMurray, Barbara Stanwyck, and Edward G. Robinson
