Newsies, which came out in 1992, is a movie about poor young men, who have to make a living for themselves (and sometimes their families) by selling newspapers. It is a fictional story starring Christian Bale and Bill Pullman, as well as David Moscow. Christian Bale is "Cowboy," a rough teenager who really needs love. When the price of the papers that they sell is raised, Cowboy insists that they protest the increase. He isn't very good with words, so his friend, David (David Moscow) helps him rally the troops. They don't get too much support from the community, until a writer (Bill Pullman) starts to document everything, which allows them to garner more followers. The movie is actually a musical, and has some of the best music I've heard in any movie. Newsies is really a great, feel-good movie.
