James Cagney thrills in a rare (and limber) song-and-dance performance as composer-entertainer George M. Cohan. This nostalgic biography is told in flashbacks, covering Cohan's formative years becoming Broadway's brightest star and touching upon his loves, musicals, and artistic triumphs. Director Michael Curtiz (The Adventures of Robin Hood) offers Cagney ample opportunities to invent an utterly charming performance in what is practically a one-man show. If you've never seen Cagney as a hoofer, you're in for a treat: his dancing is as dynamic as anything else he's ever done on screen. --Tom Keogh

Yankee Doodle Danny (Two Disk Special Edition) September 3, 2008
The movie was enjoyable to watch and got me to wondering again why James Cagney didn't make more musicals. He is fanastic in this movie. However, I especially enjoyed the added features, especially the newsreel. I did not realize that Mexico was an ally during World War II. Would recommed this to anyone who enjoys old movies and if a James Cagney fan in regard to his gangster movies, watch this to get a new perspective on a great star.
A Classic Movie August 12, 2008
A great movie - one of the greatest of all times. Colorized, it is even better than the original. Would recoemend this to anyone! So much extra on the DVD to entertain you!

as i am not a very good writer, i must say first of all amzon rocks as this was shipped and delivered extremely fast. Now as far as the movie goes, this is one of James Cagneys finest performances, I am a big cagney fan and love him in the gangster films, but his portrayl of george M. Cohan is Unbeleiveable !!!! i am glad he won an oscar for this role, one of my favorite scenes is when he meets up with eddie foy, played by eddie foy jr. remarkable. all around this a definite 5 star movie.

This is undoubtly the greatest movies that James Cagney ever made. He has always wanted to dance and he got his chance in this movie, and receiving his only academy award for his performance. The part where the father is dying is so well played, you could believe that it may be your own father dying. James Cagney truely was one of the greatest and most amazing actors and person that ever lived.
 yankee doodle dandy was a good movie July 31, 2008
i liked the movie...it was good americana and a good history of vaudeville as well as a spirited patriotic film. cagney was great as cohan and i liked his dancing especially" give my regards to broadway". strange as it may seem..these movies are truer as to how americans feel about america than any of the darker ones. the way we won the war....rescuing the world and saving it from hunger after we won....it proved true as cagney sang...about how the yanks were coming. it is a great movie.
