Today, when Clementine and I were IM-ing about Christian Bale (she's going to see Batman tonight and I mentioned seeing the haunting pictures of him from The Machinist where he is an emaciated mess) I mentioned how far he's come since Newsies. Believe it or not, she's never heard of Newsies! So I give her the synopsis and she asks, "Huh. Was it good?"To which I reply, "How could it not be? Singing and dancing newsboys in 1899 New York rising up to fight The Man!"
