Cruise praises Katie Holmes' Broadway performance

Katie Holmes made her Broadway debut in 'All My Sons' Thursday night, and her husband Tom Cruise thought it was a knockout.

Hundreds of people bought tickets to see Holmes act on Broadway for the first time in a preview performance for the revival of 'All My Sons,' co-starring John Lithgow, Dianne Wiest and Patrick Wilson.
