      Several good songs in this movie that were written by the same two who did other movies such as Lullaby of Broadway. Harry Warren and Al Dubin. I really like this number and one never really associates Warner with putting out musicals. One of the sets if I recall was the most expensive set built in those days (the swimming pool dance number).

    30s musicals almost always had one screamingly funny element to them: numbers that were supposedly performed on theater stages, but were on the scale of "The Ten Commandments". Earlier in this very film, there was an incredibly elaborate "aquacade" number where you see the swimmers from above (neat trick), forming all sorts of kaleidoscopic patterns that you would never see or appreciate from eye level. Just take a look at all the camera movements, edits, closeups, and cross-cuts in "Shanghai Lil", and you realize that only a movie could bring this sequence to life. As it does, spectacularly.
    Oh, and by the way: Jimmy Cagney WAS A GOD! Compare his musical work here, and in "Yankee Doodle Dandy"; and then watch him play a bone-chilling psychopathic murderer in "White Heat" -- and you feel like crying out to God "Couldn't You have saved some talent for the rest of us?"

      I noticed the same since I saw the first Busby Berkeley's musical. Think to the final number in 42 Street for instance, or Remember my forgotten man from Golddigers of 1933. But isn't this stravaganza part of the ipnotical beauty of these films?

    Oh my, he’s beautiful. This scene has it all. I just love that, in a matter of minutes, he goes from starting a bar brawl to singing and dancing - and even in this short clip he blows me away!
    Maybe by modern standards he’s not as “handsome” as today’s actors, but to me he’s infinitely more attractive. I hate to say it, but there doesn’t seem to be much more to most of the actors now than just that - looks.

      I was wildly in love with Cagney when I was a kid, watching his movies on TV. (I think when I saw this one, they cut part of this scene and edited part of it so the spaced-out opium blondes were not shown, and you couldn't see that one blonde whose boobs were practically hanging out of her dress). Cagney was not conventionally handsome, but his lithe, animal-like grace and extraordinarily expressive face and eyes (not to mention how he said his lines) just floored me. For all his incredible sexiness, he remained married and faithful to one woman, his wife, Frances, for 64 years.

      Gale Manning I've loved this man since I was 12. He went Home when I was 19, and even now at 51, I still love him. That smile, those eyes, that grace, just wow! I have heard stories about other actresses in his time that did their best to get in his pants, to no avail. He was a one woman man, and that's really the sexiest thing of all. RIP Jimmy C, you were the bees knees!

      Just watched this. So much sub text in there and social commentary if you want to analyse it but I don't,but you could. But James Cagney. Never seen his gangster movies. Was astonished when I saw him start to dance in a film with Bob Hope. Realised then how talented this man was. It's his face. The obvious intelligence. He doesn't have to say or do a lot because somehow his face says it and it's the tiniest of facial movements too.

    An amazing masterpiece that contains all major aspects of the period and its genre. Spectacular. One of those movies that truly becomes more wonderful each time I enjoy. The only drawback is that some people have to pay to view. So many years after release plus as a film enshrined in the National registery should mean footlight parade is forever free to view. Total, worldwide public property. Shame on any company charging any fee to stream this beautiful piece of our human soul.

    The full scene of Shanghai Lil begins in the dressing room where Cagney finds his lead actor drunk. They struggle and Cagney makes his famous fall down the stairs. Then he comes to life, singing and dancing the role himself. The scene includes American sailors marching in formation and displaying the image of FDR! At the end producers in the audience sign a contract and Cagney, back stage again, proposes to Joan Blondell. The film ends.
    If you want to watch the entire Shanghai Lil scene, it should include this complete sequence. If not you are being ripped off!

    Balmy breezes rom the sea, blossoms in the cherry tree
    Everything is so familiar, but where, oh, where is she
    I've covered every little highway
    And I've been climbing every hill

    The stars that hang high over Shanghai

    The little devil was just a butterfly
    But you'd discover something on the level

    But what's the use, I never will
    I'll be looking high and I'll be looking low
    Till I find my Shanghai Lil
    Anxiously I cast an eye on each street throughout Shanghai
    Plenty Oriental ladies beckon as they pass me by
    But my mind just can't erase one outstanding lovely face
    So, until the day I find out, I'll never leave this place
    I've covered every little highway
    And I've been climbing every hill
    I've been looking high and I've been looking low
    Looking for my Shanghai Lil
    The stars that hang high over Shanghai

      @PalmerEldritch666 - You need to get an education and understand the context. The women of ill repute said "that" oriental meaning she as an individual draws more men's attention as she is more attractive. Take the chip off your shoulders and realize that there were racial issues then but that lyric was not one of them.

      @@lorrainepaul5928 What was exactly vile? We can agree stereotypes were used. What drives the movies is entertainment value and $$$. One year later came the Hayes Act that stymied anything that they though was sexually charged and immoral. Meanwhile, 1930's had several films with all black casts and again - designed for entertainment and $$$ with an expected audience that was primarily black. Incidentally, you'll find in the 40's various talented black entertainers doing "cameos" and in some instances are show stoppers. Here is some amazing talent

    *I think, from the perspective of 'Story/Song/ Tandem-Tap/Artistic Interpretation'/that
    this is possibly the finest performance of it's kind ever put on film*
    (yes, the Nicholas Brothers and many others like 'Fred/Ginger'...and the 'best of them all'
    Shirley/'Bojangles' did surpass this single performance...but not in terms of 'conveying the
    meaning' of the "Shanghai Lil" number had with Cagney and Keeler. They were 'magic' in
    this performance!
    (I personally feel much of Cagney's performing abilities were completely wasted or
    'mis-Directed' in many of the movies he was in...I think he did them strictly for the money as
    well as being in need of 'screen-time' to not be thought-of as 'stale' or 'out-of-date')
    "One/Two/Three" was executed brilliantly by Cagney, who proved he still 'had it' as the over-
    worked Coke executive...his comedic-timing and 'expressions' were on full display despite
    having not played that 'type' of role in decades!

      Maybe he cracked simply because he wasn't a great singer. In "Never Steal Anything Small", "The West Point Story" or "Yankee Doodle Dandy", he "talks-the-songs". Maybe in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" too, I'm not sure. In "The Oklahoma Kid" he sings, but nothing extraordinary.
      PS: Chris Merritt could sing a low A (A2) without cracking and he was a tenor.
