I picked As young as You Feel (1951)
John R. Hodges is a skilled printer who is forced to retire when he turns 65 because of his company's mandatory retirement policy.
John disguises himself as Harold Cleveland, the president of the large corporation that owns his former company. The executives, believing he is the real president, eagerly try to impress him.
During the visit, John criticizes the company's policy of forcing experienced workers into retirement. His convincing arguments persuade the management to reverse the policy and rehire older employees. He later gives a public speech praising the wisdom, experience, and dignity of older workers, and his words inspire widespread.
Meanwhile, several humorous misunderstandings occur. The company president's neglected wife develops a crush on the disguised John, while his granddaughter's boyfriend realizes John's true identity but struggles to convince anyone that the "president" is actually an impostor. Eventually, the real company president learns the truth.
Instead of punishing John, the real president recognizes that his intentions were honorable. Impressed by his courage and wisdom, he ensures that John's job is restored and that the retirement policy is changed, allowing older employees to continue working if they choose.
