Meet John Doe

All America wants to meet the “Mr. Deeds” of 1941!

After being fired, reporter Ann Mitchell publishes a fabricated letter from an unemployed man called "John Doe" who threatens suicide in protest of social ills. The newspaper rehires Ann and brings in John Willoughby to pose as Doe. Ann and her bosses exploit the story for all it's worth, but the invented John Doe philosophy unexpectedly grows into a full political movement.
