Come recreate the wartime movies with a Saturday matinee! During World War II, movies had more than a single show - they included newsreels and short patriotic films. Grab some popcorn and watch a 1942 musical matinee starring James Cagney, as his character reminisces about his vaudeville days and Broadway success (126 minutes). For more information, please contact the branch at 305-535-4219 or capleyb@mdpls.org. Ages 10 yrs.+
