Glad I read about this movie. I was puzzled about Jimmy Cagney's voice and then I found out it wasn't him!

What a talent! Jimmy Durante was excellent in this film.

Priceless! Thanks for posting a comedy classic. Jimmy the Schnozz had a wonderful ear for the funniness of everyday English words.

That ending took me by surprise!

This is a fun movie. As a child of the 60's I remember Jimmy Durante from his variety show appearances and of course from his voice-work in "Frosty the Snowman." He was a funny man and he always looked old. Check this out.

Ah, Lupe Velez. Known at the time as the Mexican Spitfire.

[@kathleen3379]

wow...James Cagney's brother is in this movie....

[@ritasjourney]

I was wondering who that was. So cute!

Pretty racy at 8:11!

This script is a concatenation of cliches, antiquated ones, at that.
