Loosely based on the true story of the 1899 newsboys' strike in New York City, the film features a crew of so-called newsies as they sing their way through oppression and fight for a fairer working system. "Newsies" was a box-office flop when it was first released, reportedly making less than $3 million at the box office, even though it cost over $15 million to make.
