About this movie

A reporter (Barbara Stanwyck) writes a fictitious column about someone named ''John Doe,'' who is distraught at America's neglect of the little people and plans to kill himself. The newspaper then hires a ballplayer-turned-hobo (Gary Cooper) to pose as John Doe.
In a series of radio addresses written by a publisher with fascist leanings, Doe captures the public's imagination. When he finally realizes he has been used, Doe comes to his senses and becomes the man he never knew he could be.

Ratings and reviews

The Joe Doe clubs inspired people to live life how it was meant to be lived. Being bought up with strong moral values and children being taught to cherish and respect all people. Parents actually playing their proper roles and neighborhoods actually being neighborly .folks actually caring for each other the way God intended us to..But greedy little people always needing to poison all that is good with their evil hearts

Great film but a poor quality, muddy print.

One of the best
