For the obvious similar plotlines I've taken the liberty of creating a little pastiche. The accompanying quote is what I've used in the YouTube version of the original trailer for Mr Smith Goes To Washington.
Frank Capra's beloved film about a political novice who goes to Washington, D.C. as a junior Senator and finds nothing but deep-rooted corruption. Absolutely refusing to submit to cynicism, he tirelessly takes the message of the American people right to their out-of-touch representatives.
Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose.
(The more things change, the more they remain the same.)
