James Cagney - 'Yankee Doodle' Medley

'Give my Regards to Broadway' & 'Yankee Doodle Dandy' scenes from the 1942 film 'Yankee Doodle Dandy'. James Cagney shows his versatility in these two song and dance numbers from George M. Cohan's life-story.

The man surely earned his Oscar for this movie

Hollywood will never know talent like Cagney ever again. He can sing, dance and act. Most Hollywood actors can barely act, let alone sing and dance.

83 people gave this a thumbs down, these people who gave it thumbs down do not know great movies and great talent.

This literally has to be one of the best “feel-good” movies ever made

[mikechirrick]

James Cagney was the best. Many people dont know but the movies that he watched were the ones that he danced in. He didnt care to watch his gangster movies much. He was a true song and dance man....

I never saw the day coming when watching James Cagney sing and dance would bring tears to my eyes. That day is here. Thank you for posting this.

This movie is American entertainment in its finest form, and a sheer joy to watch.

James Cagney and films like this are sadly a thing of the past.

I'm 67, they don't make talent like this anymore, no wonder I'd rather watch old B & W movies and not new ones.But hey I still love disco too! Lol

Cagney wasn't just a great actor, wasn't just known for tough guy roles, he was also a great dancer

When I was a lad growing up in England in the 1940s and 1950s, we loved to see James Cagney in ' gangster movies '. We were absolutely flabbergasted when this movie appeared - what we didn't know was that JC started his career as a song and dance man.

I bought this movie and never get tired of watching it, especially this scene. Cagney is incomparable - the most electric, charismatic actor ever! The studio wanted to dub his songs with a singer. Thank goodness they didn't get their way.

Nobody had talent and charisma like Cagney . A great actor and phenomenal dancer. He got into show business when he went with a friend who was auditioning for the chorus of a show. Cagney decided to try out He went on last and just imitated the dancers ahead of him as he had no dance background. He got the part

[richartrod]

The dancing gangster. 😁
Cagney was an energetic entertainer, putting everything into whatever he did. This film threw audiences for a loop, and is rightfully Cagney's most beloved role.

One of my favourite James Cagney movies, I could watch this over and over again ❤
