From 'Yankee Doodle Dandy' (1942). The singer is Frances Langford who was a big deal in her day! From IMDb: Frances Langford (1913-2005) won fame on radio (primarily as Bob Hope's vocalist, later sparring comically with Don Ameche as "The Bickersons"), via recordings and in the movies. In spite of the fact that she played mostly in minor musicals (plus appearing occasionally in "A" productions, including Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942), This Is the Army (1943) and The Glenn Miller Story (1954)), she introduced major songs like "I'm in the Mood for Love" in Every Night at Eight (1935), "You are My Lucky Star" and "Broadway Rhythm" in Broadway Melody of 1936 (1935), Cole Porter's "Easy to Love" in Born to Dance (1936) and "Hooray for Hollywood" in Hollywood Hotel (1937).

During WW2, people gladly watched movies as this. Americans then were very patriotic. After Pearl Harbor was bombed, a mob of young men rushed the offices in every state to enlist. Professional singers and dancers gladly spent hours entertaining our GIs through the USO. Americans rarely griped about rationing and shortages. Children collected stuff to recycle for the war effort. Those people are not called the greatest generation for nothing. I doubt there will ever be such a generation ever again. A perfect movie of the American homefront is Remember When, from 1974, with Jack Warden and Tim Matheson. It's on DVD, and sometimes on TCM.

[@gkpirate]

This is one of my favorite moments of this film. I was just thinking about something. Looking this movie up on Wikipedia, this movie debuted on June 6, 1942. It was on that day that the United States Navy and her allies on the ocean won a considerable victory at Midway against the Japanese, which of course was at a great human cost. Since the war for the United States only started about 6 months before that with the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the effort to fight back, according to history, was sluggish for the Allies. This movie, since it debuted on the same date as a major victory, must have been one hell of a moral booster when it was shown in theatres. I cannot help but wonder what the audiences of the time thought, and there had to be at least some soldiers, marines, or perhaps naval seamen in that crowd. When I see the frame of Cagney, looking to the audience of the troops of World War I, and screaming "Everybody Sing!" I can only imagine how the audience viewing the film would have reacted, singing along with those in the film. (Not very many films of the WW2 era broke the 4th wall, but I think this one did it brillantly).

[@JimWalsh-rl5dj]

Do YOU know when Pearl Harbor was bombed?!? December, 1941! 6 months before the release of this movie and the Battle of Midway. And FYI there were quite a few men who went to England and flew for the RAF, soooo, your argument of "Britain/England stood alone" doesn't hold a lot of water.

The most iconic Cagney mannerisms ever seen on film!

[@josephkearns4314]

This might be Cagney’s finest role. If it wasn’t, it’s my favorite!

[@williamrubinstein3442]

The film is Yankee Doodle Dandy, about the songwriter George M. Cohan.

Freedom has a very expensive price tag. Stand and thank all who have answered America's call to duty. People like my Dad,Alex an only son who asnwered the call of duty during WW2 and served in the US Army. Remember Amercians can make America whatever she is or will be. Stand tall and proud.

[@michaelmills2625]

When James Cagney stares at the trumpet while he's inspired, chats a WWI era trumpet. Nice touch.

[@johnlightbody9942]

Usually I don't advertise these emotions, but the sacrifices that all allied nations made & USA coming into it... USA only had to revenge against Japan, but they fully supported the fight against the Nazis too... To USA & all Allies & my Uncle who was front line France... THANK YOU!! ❤

Germany declared War against the US on Dec 11, 1941. That was just 4 days after Pearl Harbor.

[@CJ87317]

This isn't during WWII....it's WWI.

[@kennethnesmith4731]

This a great portrayal of our American tradition of setting differences aside at the waters edge and Uniting as One Country Under God to face a common enemy. God Bless America,May She forever stand Free and Just , Blessings to one all

A different World. Sure times were difficult but there was a sense amongst all people of the free World - led by a strong President of the USA - that we would join together and do whatever necessary to preserve liberty. Alas, now an increasingly distant memory.

"The Great War" was a real mixed bag. We needed to help fight against Germany. But President Wilson and the others bungled the peace and we paid for that with WW2.

[@marshallbowen8693]

President Wilson didn’t bungle the peace. The US Congress wouldn’t join the League of Nations partially designed by Wilson and it became ineffectual in keeping the peace without US support and membership.

[@joaquinarrunategui7734]

And sorry, but you are all wrong in you opinion....better started to read history of europeans countries,reason of WWI started what was the Versalles Treaty...in 1917, Wilson do not wanto that his country be in european war, but Lusitania ship was hit by german boat and kill 12 gringos on board, then US get to european war....you do not paid WW2 that is another history you must started to read in history books of war.

I love this film. James Cagney was superb in it. When he’s trying out the song it looks like he’s playing the right notes on the piano too! G sharp, B, E if I’m not mistaken! I couldn’t get the tunes from this film out of my head after I had watched it. I have just realised that the chorus of this is the same music for the ‘Go Compare’ insurance adverts. Lol! I think James Cagney and George Cohan would have liked the ads! The sound quality in this film is so fantastic too.

[@moriahjacobs6131]

Cagney could play the piano.

[@lindamanas6735]

@@moriahjacobs6131I didn’t know that. He seemed such a lovely guy. I remember when he was interviewed on UK TV by Michael Parkinson. I watched this film in Lockdown. I had no idea James Cagney could dance or sing. I originally thought he was just in gangster movies.
