Of course you have watched, “The Gallant Hours” and know what Cagney did to get it made?
There is one scene that particularly moved me. It is when his son was lost.
A young Dennis Weaver also did a good job in the movie.
Yes… it is one of the movies that I own. The United States needed a leader at that time, and Halsey provided it.
Really remarkable acting job by Cagney.
And that scene you mentioned, that was real leadership. He could’ve pulled rank, but he didn’t.
As it happens, “The Gallant Hours” is free with ads on YouTube, I just had it pop up in recommended on the Roku and started watching. Thanks!
