Trama
Lo sapevi?
- QuizThe protest march of the "army of the unemployed" in the story was no doubt a reference to the protest march of the "Bonus Army" in 1932, where veterans of WWI marched on Congress to demand payment of promised bonuses. They were attacked with tanks and tear gas by the U.S. Army led by Gen. Douglas MacArthur on orders of President Herbert Hoover. William Randolph Hearst, who railed against that action in his newpapers, saw to it that the President in this film helped the people. Meanwhile, Louis B. Mayer, a staunch Republican, delayed the movie until Hoover was out of office.
- BlooperThrough out the whole movie Walter Huston's hair is combed differently in one continuous scene after another. It's obvious many of the cuts back to him are from different takes.
- Citazioni
Jimmy Vetter: I got a speech.
Hon. Judson Hammond - The President of the United States: A speech? Let's hear it.
Jimmy Vetter: I love my uncle Judd because he's going to cure the Depression and make everybody rich.
- Versioni alternativeIn 1995, the Madrid Filmoteca screened both the American version and the little-seen European version of Gabriel Over the White House. In the European version, Hammond is seen to go just that much further into fascism. It also features a significantly altered ending. In the American version, Hammond is nobly struck down at the end, whereas in the European version, Pendie actually chooses NOT to save him, because she sees what he has become.

Recensione in evidenza
While I was living in Madrid, the Filmoteca showed both the American version and the little-seen European version of this. My memory is a little hazy, but the European version was by far the more interesting of the two: firstly Hammond is seen to go just that much further into fascism; and secondly, rather than have him nobly struck down at the end, Pendie actually chooses NOT to save him, because she sees what he has become. I've yet to find anything written about this other version though. I think we should be told...
