Power, intrigue, betrayal. It's DCvSD. If Jimmy Stewart vs. Benicio Del Toro isn't the matchup you've been waiting for, I don't know what is.

Finally! A poll where I've seen both films. My vote goes to Mister Smith.

Is this a fair poll? I haven't seen Traffic, but I know it cuts back and forth between locations. Is San Diego a major location or a minor one?

You know, I don't remember. When I think of the movie, though, I don't think of San Diego.

It wasn't a particularly memorable movie, and the fact I remember "Mr Smith..." more even though it's been at least ten years since I saw it, really speaks volumes.
