1. My little brother and I

watched Yankee Doodle Dandy as little kids and just freaked out. We started learning all the songs and from there 2 professional music careers. I love that movie, it reminds me of my brother so much and he has been gone so long that it takes me to a place I can hardly recall on my own. 19 years this December? I think so. I will be watching. THANK YOU!

2. Am watching "Footlight Parade" right now...

...maybe my favorite Cagney film. Listen to him talk! Rapidly, like a machine gun...nothing further from "method acting" could be imagined. And for me, he's more true and right on than any modern actor is...
