"Shrewd and lively comedy...spiced with wit, novelty and ingenuity." -- New York Times

"Mr. Deeds is Capra's finest film (it is quite on a different intellectual level from the spirited and delightful It Happened One Night), and that means it is a comedy quite unmatched on the screen...Capra is supported by a perfect cast. Every minor part, however few the lines, is completely rendered, and Mr. Gary Cooper's subtle and pliable performance must be something of which other directors have only dreamed." -- Graham Greene, 1936
