  2. Introduction • In the beginning of the movie, a Senator named Fuller has died, so the governor of the specific state (which is not named) has to appoint a new senator. • A man by the name of Jim Taylor is a corrupt man and bribes political men to do as he says. • The men want to find a naive and gullible man so he’ll do what they say. • They want a man named Miller, while on the other side the people want a man named Horecehill. • Jim Taylor and the others didn’t want to appoint Horecehill because he wasn’t as gullible. • The children of the Governor request for a boy scout leader named Jefferson Smith to be the senator • The Governor picks Smith as the Senator • The Senator comes to Washington and gets onto a tour bus without anyone • When he is at the Lincoln Memorial he hears a boy reciting the Gettysburg address

  4. Climax • Mr. Smith goes to the senate and when its his turn to speak the Senators leave • Then Smith calls a quorum, which means that at least half of the senators have to come back • Then he did a filibuster, where he kept talking for a little more than 24 hours
