For those who are home and unoccupied, Turner Classic Movies has Yankee Doodle Dandy starting in half an hour, and The Music Man after that. I adore both films and will be watching.

Thank I just turned it on. Love the old movies

Ack!   Was going to tune in, but got wrapped up in completing a long book.  Thanks!  Just turned it on in time for the "Yankee Doodle" number.

Too late, I am already up to Rocky V...

I could watch James Cagney dance those numbers over and over again, and from the time the film came out I had all the sings in Music Man memorized.

Great movie.  Love when Cagney dances down the stairs at the WH.  And, the last scene is very special.

[Moonchilde]

I agree, Lynda. I'm watching that scene right now :-)

These movies, esp with J. Cagney, bring fond memories of my Dad.  He is still with us physically, but he his miles away in his mind.  I love him dearly and miss him with all my heart and soul. 

We had so many memorable talks throughout my childhood.  I hold on to all that I can remember.  He just loved J. Cagney.

Bittersweet, Karnerblue. I'm sorry :-(

Oh darn I missed them! DH was recording Gettysburg tours for the holiday on tv and we were watching movies (w tv blaring trying to drown out neighbors fireworks!).
