Canção Triunfal
29/05/1942
George M. Cohan (James Cagney) conta sua vida em flashback, em um tom modesto, a Franklin Roosevelt (Jack Young). Ele foi um lendário artista da Broadway que viveu a época de ouro do teatro musical nos Estados Unidos, história que é contada através de números de dança e canções. Cohan passou mais de 55 anos nos palcos, estrelou mais de 30 peças e podia dizer por aí que já havia cantado e dançado mais de 500 canções. Por isso tudo, sua história pessoal se confunde com a história americana.
