Perhaps you might shed some substantive light on whether Hope's conversion to the Catholic Faith was due to all that time he spent making the Road films with devout Catholic, Bing Crosby, or was it more so because of his wife who happened to be Catholic (or, maybe even, a combination of the two)? At any rate, I'd be interested in what were the actual turning points in his conversion and how he got there. Thanks. Good to see that you’ll be doing a post dedicate to Bob Hope’s conversion.

Cagney playing Cohan in Yankee Doodle Dandy was one of his favorites that seemed to be shown once a year. Sadly, as the years have passed I don't seem to take time to think of my folks often enough. I need to get both movies (Foy and Yankee Doodle Dandy)on DVD for my kids. As my friend Hope would say or sing "Thanks for the memories."
