Can you help me remember the name of a movie?

Maybe 1940s, black and white. An old man was dying and his friends or family arranged to have a newspaper printed saying that everything was wonderful for him to read on his deathbed.

I haven't seen it in years, but I remember it was quite excellent. And yes, it's very sad
