Yankee Doodle Dandy


Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942)
[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0035575/]

The Gist:
A reasonably entertaining piece of mild war time propaganda. There are some catchy numbers that are now fairly inseperable from other traditional patriotic hymns, songs, whatever. Also James Cagney is still awesome. However, the movie had no real conflict and was a bit too easy to digest.
