The gangster films of the 1930s were fast-paced and no urine spots. A tour of the angry 20s, the promulgation and repeal of Prohibition accompanied the rise and fall of the gang. Cagney's 1930s gangster film interpretation history has come to a successful...

I can actually get this kind of gentle retrospect that is destined to surpass the times. Just as "Forrest Gump" is not "Easy Rider," this movie is not "Scarface." Gentle like Ford's "Green Mountain and Green Valley" (˶‾᷄ ⁻̫ ‾᷅˵) It does not use the background to set off the story, but very cleverly designs the characters and the story to express the emotion of the era. Heartbroken, really. It was absolutely conscious to have Bogart be the villain of the old order, let his son play a cowboy, and...

I think the best thing is not to refer to the times, but to create a successful bootlegger who drinks milk, has a bottom line, and attaches great importance to love and righteousness. The former killed his partner, the latter killed...

The history of the decline and fall of gangsters without any epic taste, but rather focuses on individuals. The fate of small and medium-sized people in turbulent times is very beautiful; it has become a big shot of glory for two times, but the next time he fell, he never got up...

Everything you need to know about the 1920s is in this film. "Little people in a big era + ten-year time span = poignancy" is a very useful formula. The male protagonist is a survivor who is at the mercy of the times. He has no support or sympathy. He dies because of love and seeks benevolence. Gladys George's character is...

worthy for my liquor and my tear
This film is worthy of my 10-year-old bottle of Canadian Club Blend. I was holding the empty whisky bottle and watched with tears in my eyes.

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...

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.
