My absolute favorite Cagney film. An American classic.
This film and one, two, three
Based on all the BS going on today, this gives me tears. To all you young idiots that never served, stick it up you a$$e$. It’s a grand old flag.
Oh how I miss seeing this movie on 4th of July years ago on TV with my parents 💔
Wonderful movies they played back in the day, and what a great movie this IS 🎇🇺🇲🤗
nothing like cagney dancing down the stairs,awesome movie
This is one of the earliest movies that fostered my love of great cinema. Watched it 1st in the 60s and then 4-5 times again over the years. Cagney could really dance for a type casted gangster. 😂😂
He was an actor in vaudeville before he went to Hollywood. He danced too. He knew all the tricks from real life experience, just like Cohan did. What a life those travelling actors had. 7/11/24
An absolutely great film. Cagney won the Academy Award for best actor for this. I’m hoping some RUclips reactor will figure it out.
GREAT movie!
Would have loved to see him tap dance down the stairs.
What an entertainer, and great American.
Cagney Ad libbed that dance
Great Movie, Happy 248 USA.
Born in my home state of Rhode Island. There is a statue dedicated to him a top Fox Point in Providence.
This movie highlights his talent
Hope everyone had a safe & happy 4th of July - Happy Friday 🥳🎉
This movie makes me feel very patriotic, Of course, the music is from World War II and World War I but not in the same. I sing a songs, but it brings back a lot of emotion.
it came out in 1942 just after Pearl Harbor
Adoro esse filme.
please show the whole movie!!!!!🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
He's really Irish.
Forgot his wife was pregnant. 😂
Nowadays folks don't give a thinkers cuss about making fun of the President.
I'm a Good Democrat Mister President.
It was a great Movie but it was pure 100% American Propaganda, it was released just after America entered the War, it helped make Kids think they wanted to Join in the war effort and help "Uncle Sam" and feel good about it, not knocking it, Propaganda was Hollywood's greatest achievement, the actual movies were secondary
So, you don't like the movie?
@@MrElliotc02 So you can't read?
So, the way they act in movies those days, you were to be very much afraid of the government. Not the way it should be. And that's why Old and I mean old, Donald Trump never should be president!!!!!!!
FDR one of the dirtiest political operators that America never saw. Nothing changes.
Could you give us some examples.
