    I enjoyed this black and white Classic Movie. It had all the bells and whistles of a great show (almost as grand as a Musical on Broadway! Great singing, dancing and acting all supported by comedic timing and a good family story! One of the stars, Joan Leslie spoke before this showing and What A Beautiful, Warm, Lady with a great big Hug of a Personality! Loved It All and a great Family Event.

    This is the best James Cagney movie. I decided to become an actress after seeing this motion picture. I also got Joan Leslie's autograph at the event. This is a movie which brings tears of pride to your eyes and also makes you smile. A wonderful pro-America film and very historic. The "hoofing" or dancing is brilliant and the music of George M. Cohan is the very reason I am so proud to be American. James Cagney won best actor for his role as George M. Cohan in this 1942 motion picture.

    Fabulous evening. Wonderful to see it on a big screen. Wish the lighting was better in the theater for the Q&A. We could barely see Joan Leslie.

    I found the website extremely difficult to maneuver to order tickets. I had to call Screen Actors Guild and have them walk me thru it and they said they had to do it for a lot of people who had the same problem with the website.

    By the way, I am not 13 years old and I resent being asked my age in order to participate in this.
    Give us an age range, at least.
