4th of July Movie: Yankee Doodle Dandy.

For the 4th of July. Movie: Yankee Doodle Dandy. Family-Musical. This patriotic musical stars James Cagney. It's based on the life of George Cohen, Broadway playwright, producer and star. In the movie James Cagney is one of the four Cohens, a family of vaudevillians of a by gone era. The talented and successful George Cohen writes song and dance routines for Broadway plays in the Big Apple, AKA New York City. One of Cohen's most popular songs, This Grand Old Flag, was used in WWI and WWII. Your eyes just get misty hearing it. I’ve seen this film more than once I liked it so much, but kids under nine might get bored since the movie is about adults.
