James Cagney's role is full, but Bogart and that lawyer are too functional. The dialogue in the old movie is not about...

Excellent gangster movie model, not black, pure gangster, so it can be said that the real start of the movie is about an hour. Interspersed and sorted out a series of processes during the Prohibition period, it is very clear and concise. One of the highlights is much clearer than "Once Upon a Time in America". What's more important is the combination of the ending and the heroine's portrayal, and the lawyer's deliberate dwarfing, forming an expression and sympathy for the sadness of class...

In the early history of gangsters, it can be seen that many later crime films have shadows here, and the opening prologue also explains everything. The soldiers who survived World War I were unwilling to live in poverty and tried to become big figures who will not be lost by the times. The transformation of the characters' hearts is detailed and detailed. , the rhythm is very lively, the characters are clearly explained in a few simple words and a few pictures, the gang history and life...

"The Merry Girl" made me fall in love with Cagney. 1939 was the year when World War II started, and the World War I part of the title is quite fable. Although it is mainly about Cagney's driver turning over to become a boss and turning his head around empty-handed Turning to the original point, losing my wife and losing my life to reflect the history of prohibition, the problem of soldiers' difficulty integrating into society after the war is exactly the same as that of "Golden Age", all of...

It only takes 100 minutes to vividly show the history of the rise and fall of gangsters in a span of 10 years, and the characters are full of characters and the plot is complete. It can also be regarded as an early noir film. This kind of neat editing and narration should really be learned by directors nowadays. In addition, Cagney and Gladys played too well, and Bogart's edge was covered...

The gangster movie textbook, in less than two hours, shows the history of the United States from the end of World War I to the Great Depression for more than ten years. It tells the tortuous fate of the male protagonist in the era of success and failure. The ending is embarrassing. The slanted compositions and gorgeous montages used in the shots of the period background are commendable. Cagney's performance is contrasting and persuasive. Bogart contributes a funny emoji at the end. The female...

It's good-looking. Putting the prohibition order directly on the table has a feeling of combining various elements of gangster films... I don't like the ending, and I still can't stand this kind of take advantage of the desperate practice, especially using the other party's love... Sigh> .< Cagney is so dazzling, my poor Bogart can only be cool without...

villain love
The film portrays the emotional line of the gangsters as a minority in society. We can actually see that james' love for periscilla is that even though the girl finally got married and had children, when she went to find evidence to help her, james still went to help her, and sacrificed her own for...

Little is known, let's promote it
As one of the early classics that influenced Hong Kong gangster films, the character structure and performance are really excellent. The final set of shots is absolutely classic.

George Halley: [In the shell hole, battle raging overhead] What's a matta' kid? Ya' scared?
Lloyd Hart: Yes I am.
George Halley: [Chuckles unsympathetically] No heart, huh?
Lloyd Hart: I'm beginning to think so. At least I haven't got any heart for this. I thought this business would be over with before I got here.
George Halley: What, are you a college kid?
Lloyd Hart: I just finished law school.
Eddie Bartlett: Oh, a lawyer, huh? Can you think of anything that can get us out of this hole?
George Halley: Aw, he wouldn't if he could. He's one of them guys that cheer the loudest back home, and then when they get over here and the goin' gets tough they fold up.
Eddie Bartlett: [Annoyed] Shut up...
George Halley: I'm talkin' to him...
Eddie Bartlett: [Talking to George] And I'm talkin' to YOU. I don't like heels or big mouths. We're all scared, and why shouldn't we be? Whaddya' think they're usin' in this war, water pistols?
Eddie Bartlett: [Talking to Lloyd] You're all right, kid. I like guys who are honest with themselves. Stay that way.
Eddie Bartlett: [the shelling around them has died down] Come on. Looks like it's quieted down.

George Halley: [Referring to The Sergeant, who rides roughshod over the men] Someday I'm gonna' catch that ape without his stripes on and I'm gonna' kick his teeth out.
Eddie Bartlett: [Mockingly looking George up and down] You must be quite a guy back home.
George Halley: [Shrugs nonchalantly] I do all right.
