This is from “The Seven Little Foys.”
That was great! Thanks!
Freaking great! Thanks for posting! I’m still smiling.
When I was young, I thought Hope was schmaltzy and stupid. Then I grew up, and recognized him as the great man he was! Can’t get enough!
Loved it! Thanks food the memories ..
It’s from “The Seven Little Foys”. Good movie.
I enjoyed and it had a bonus for me—the curtains. I’m going to copy them. Thanks!
Cagney’s dance looks a lot like his dancing in “Yankee Doodle Dandy”. Compare Cagney’s talent the talent of today’s movies stars. Let me correct myself. There is no comparison.
Thanks for posting.
I’ve seen it several times but never tire of watching it.
They were both great dancers and entertainers.
I have watched this scene 50 times and I am still amazed at Cagney’s flawless technique

I am so ignorant, I was not aware that Cagney could dance like that, simply amazing! And no CGI either :)
Excellent! Two of the most outstanding entertainers of all time!
Also viewed the “Jersey Boys” video linked right below it. Another not to miss.
That’s Old School. When DiCaprio and Damon are that age they’ll probably be twerking together.
And of course, Fred and Ginger

My Dad thought Bob Hope was the greatest. Not for his comedy, but for Hope entertaining the troops. Dad got to meet Bob and his wife when they sat next to us in a restaurant. He talked about that for years after.
It was such a dishonor back in the early 70s when Alan Alda and the writers on MASH basically crapped all over USO entertainers like Hope in one episode. That’s like crapping in your living room out of spite for your own profession.
Great stuff!
I always liked Gene Kelly’s Singing in the Rain.

I saw Kurt Browning’s ice skating excellent tribute. It seemed to only show up during some PBS telethons:

Now I want to watch the whole movie! Thanks! :)
“and it was Mary, Mary...” If I recall correctly, Hope began his career as a hoofer.
