Sony has announced a December 2nd street date for the Blu-Ray debut of Frank Capra's Mr. Smith Goes to Washington in honor of its 75th-anniversary.

This release comes hot on the heels of Criterion's announcement of It Happened One Night, another Capra classic, coming to both Blu-Ray and DVD November 18th. 

The bonus content for Mr. Smith looks to be carried over from its previous release, as part of the Frank Capra Collection, in 2006 and includes a commentary by Frank Capra, Jr., and it does not appear that there will be a DVD print for this. 

With this latest wave of Capra films being upgraded, it is still unknown when Mr. Deeds Goes to Town will receive the Blu-Ray treatment. That film was fully restored and screened at this year's TCM Classic Film Festival.
