Feeling a little bit patriotic this President's Day? Want to watch a charming and shockingly true story about real life WWI hero Alvin C York? Want an excuse to stare into Gary Cooper's eyes just in general? Then Sergeant York is the movie for you! Howard Hawks, "the greatest American director who is not a household name" directs this oddly enjoyable (and let's be real, slightly propagandic) piece of Americana about a small-town pacifist who ends up winning the Congressional Medal of Honor. Gary Cooper won an Oscar for his performance in this film which costars Joan Leslie and Walter Brennan. Host, Sara Greenfield, and her Guest, Sarah Rois chat about all this and more on Talk Classic To Me.
