Boys Town Official Trailer #1 - Mickey Rooney Movie (1938) HD

[@LPJack02]

RIP Spencer Tracy (April 15, 1900 - June 10, 1967), aged 67 And RIP Mickey Rooney (September 23, 1920 - April 6, 2014), aged 93 You both will always be remembered as legends.

[@triplethreat017]

Such a great and powerful movie. Spencer Tracy was fabulous and Mickey Rooney, as usual, gave a brilliant and believable performance in this film. What a talent, they don't make 'em like they used to! R.I.P. Mr. Rooney, we love you so!

[@speedysteve5229]

I loved Father Flanagan's comment that he didn't believe there was any such thing as a bad boy. How powerful for young people to hear that.

[@missle4238305]

I have visited Boys Town when I was in the Boy Scouts and It is a wonderful place

[@josemolinaro]

Poor PeeWee. I loved this movie. Mickey Rooney was brilliant. He will be missed and remembered.

[@nightynightjill]

They don't make masterpieces like this anymore.

[@barbarahobens2527]

Thanks for all of the wonderful memories! What a talent.

[@zjanvl5810]

I loved the movie Boystown and they did not even mention it,this is a Great Movie, you were so very good !! R.I.P.

[@flash8854]

It's a lovely story. I used dream of doing something like that for homeless boys when I came out. Not just because I like boys either. I wanted to do some good. Something that I could be remembered for. - Ronnie Kray.

[@albertomorales9493]

If you really like this movie you have very good taste, Any other favorites black and white films you can recommend? Never seen this movie before, but my mother and uncle always used to talk about these great actors. Hopefully I can find this one to see it soon.

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

If you like BOYS TOWN (1938), you might enjoy its direct sequel, MEN OF BOYS TOWN (1941), as well.

[@laurastafford6217]

[@duanedusek1089]

one the greats, RIP mickey!

RIP MICKEY ROONEY

[@alannaborden1429]

I actually grewup with Mickey's films

Listen to the LP/CD Christmas with the Everly brothers with the Boys Town Choir recorded in 1962!

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

I've been unable to find a complete discography, but the Boys Town Choir recorded several other albums, as well. Two different albums called CHRISTMAS AT BOYS TOWN. The first (probably earlier) one features only the Choir, while the second features baritone Gordon MacRae with the group. THE BOYS TOWN CHOIR may have been their first album. It contains religious and Christmas music, and also a few secular selections, like the madrigal, "April is In My Mistress' Face," and "The Blue Danube." A different "concert" album with the same title dates from the 1960s, and is said to be a private pressing. It contains religious and classical selections. An album commemorating the group's tour to Japan came out in 1968. This features secular songs in English, many of them Broadway show tunes, but also includes a couple of selections in Japanese. Their Christmas album with the Everly Brothers came out the following year (1969), and seems to be the most enduringly popular if their recordings THE BOYS TOWN CHOIR SINGS AMERICA (1975), the most recent album that I know of, features a very Christmasy-looking snow scene behind the iconic "He Ain't Heavy" image of an older boy carrying a younger one, but the selections are all American popular and folk tunes like "This Land Is Your Land," "Shenandoah," and (not incidentally), "He Ain't Heavy ... He's My Brother." This album was probably intended to capitalize on the American Bicentennial of 1976.

[@patrickforsythe5620]

Great movie! Hollywood Handbook brought me here.

[@joeminicilli3008]

"He sent me out lookin like a mammy singer, and I don't take that from anybody!"

[@LGBTR3naissance]

I look forward to seeing this movie.

[@GLITCHIT1]

I wonder how many of the actors are still around. It was a great movie.

[@lovinaconn8783]

Best movie of my life

[@RSTAR2009]

Great film!

[@blueskye6372]

Good movie. 🎥🎬💜🙏

[@mariaespinoza6358]

Watching right now ... TCM LOVE 💕 Spencer Tracey and Mickey Rooney 💋💋

[@amafirenze-vi1uh]

Mickey Rooney was good here: he could play comedy and drama with ease.

[@jettrink7510]

I tell people all the time... "if you think you're gonna make a plow jockey out of me you got another thing comin"... They have no idea what I'm talkin about but I don't care.

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

The line seems like a non-sequiter because the trailer omits part of the preceding dialogue, in which Father Flanagan tells Whitey about various things he could do at Boys Town, including farming.

[@billycahill4265]

a lovely movie

[@biginpittsburgh]

What a great career...

[@brianparent8901]

Great movie...

[@Donna-h8d3q]

I I like boys Town

[@blackbird5634]

Didn't Mickey play a jockey on more than one occasion? 4 foot 9,,maybe? Not the tough guy of today but boy what an actor! love him!

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

Mickey played a jockey in at least two movies that I know of, DOWN THE STRETCH (1936) and THOROUGHBREDS DON'T CRY (1937).

[@scorpio2068]

My favorite

[@martinezmartineztwinsfan9636]

scorpio2068 is Whitley marsh farther Flanagan son the boys town movie

[@ashelyc7]

Best movie everrr :)

[@elliewilletts2224]

I always cry in this movie because it is so happy when Whitley becomes mayor at the end

[@PhiloGant]

Was the character Lampwick from Pinocchio based on Whitey Marsh? It had to have been. There are too many similarities....

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

Lampwick is said to be a self-caricature of Disney animator Fred Moore, who was the chief animator for the character.

[@debbabe2254]

Another time when a movie trailer gave away the entire movie. 😝

[@mosessteenbeke9494]

There needs to be a remake and a tv series of Boys Town.

[@guillermo851]

Vi esa película y me cambio mí forma de ser, empecé a tener conciencia social y preocuparme x el otro ,

[@marshallsage6816]

The movies and the actors were so great back then. I enjoy all the old movies by to many names to mention. Boys Town came out 24 years before I was born. I have watched it before alone with guys like Cagney, Robinson, Bogart. Their movies were oldies when I was young. I’m 59 now and I have tried to watch those old classics on the many streaming, pay extra, try for 7 days for free, Netflix, Amazon bullshit. All I want to do is see an old movie. I guess an old movie these days is an old Die Hard flick or Rocky. Hell, I guess they are old too. Good movies but not when movies were golden. I’m out.

[@saturnargentavis1901]

well that showed most of the movie..

[@ShaneGaffey-g4m]

I forgot to tell him about the wrestling movie you guys it was the switcher Rooney

[@alannaborden1429]

I have the severest crush on mickey

[@Perpetuity_kberg]

From what i understand if there is no legitimate actual history truth and just to lure more children to that aweful place then im disappointed and needs remastered with the ugly truth.

[@elballoonrat]

Interesting movie to watch after reading about Boys town being caught hording donations, utilizing swiss bank accounts, and generally not being good custodians acting in the kids best interests.

[@automotive474]

From Wikipedia, this seems to have happened in the seventies, after Father Flannigan has passed
