Newsies

You think Jack is leaving the city and the rest of the Newsies behind, but he comes back to a roaring crowd riding in the Mayor's carriage. All the sweatshop workers come down the street singing and waving the papers they had handed out earlier. So the sweatshop workers are on strike, the Newsies get the paper's costs to go back down, and Jack reunites with Sarah and David, and all ends happily ever after as they go dancing into the sunset (metaphorically).

Continuity mistake: During the opening number, The kid with the brown, hard, top hat (as the boys are at the gate and when the Delancy Brothers are there) messes up the kids hair in fornt of him. When he puts his hat on correctly his hair is hanging down on the right side. Later his hat is off and when the camera switches angles a split second later, the hat returns.

More quotes from Newsies

Question: During the song "The World Will Know," Jack climbs up onto the balcony of the World building to write the word "Strike" on the headline chalkboards. As he's climbing, between lines of the song, you can hear him yelling. All I can hear of the first line is "Pulitzer." I'm pretty sure the second line is "You think you own the world." Anybody know what he's saying there?

Answer: This website has the lyrics to that song: http://www.stlyrics.com/lyrics/newsies/theworldwillknow.htm.
