Private lecture - "Yankee Doodle Dandy - America's most patriotic film"

  • Suffolk County, NY (map)

Perhaps the most rousing patriotic musical ever filmed, attendees will see this classic flag waver that stars James Cagney as George M. Cohan, Broadway’s most popular and versatile star. They will learn how Cagney came to star in this film and watch him excel at his first love - dance. Jim always thought of himself as a “hoofer” and he displays his amazing talent in this film. Filled with wonderful toe tapping songs, funny jokes, a sterling cast and Jimmy Cagney’s magnetism, this film remains a captivating and absolute delight to this day! Film highlights will follow the Power Point presentation. Soundtrack music as well as a book, autograph and memorabilia display are included with the original local Long Island presentation.
