Newsies is a 1992 Disney musical starring... drumroll... a very young and drool-able Christian Bale, Bill Pullman who is awesome & Robert Duvall.
Based on the true story of the newsboys strike in 1899 in old town NYC, the story follows two of the newsboys who play an integral role in organizing and unionizing.

"In 1899, the streets of New York City echoed with the voices of newsies, peddling the newspapers of Joseph Pulitzer, William Randolph Hearst, and other giants of the newspaper world. On every corner you saw them carrying the banner, bringing you the news for a penny a paper. Poor orphans and runaways, the newsies were a ragged army, without a leader. Until one day, all that changed..."
It's a wonderful musical romp that is sure to leave an impact on the 100 of us out there who have seen it.
Uh Niki, I love Newsies. Why did we never bond over this back in our glory days of college? Oh if only I'd known... Think of all the viewings we could have had! Although, we probably would have driven Ashleigh insane, harmoniously signing "Santa Fe!"
