1. It is very good to use the clues of the big era to connect the characters and the plot; 2. It can't resist Jane's emotion for Eddie at all; 3. The plot is somewhat deliberate, but overall it is good.

[My favorite Cagney work is the well-deserved big brother in all his films. ] AN EPIC OF TIME AND HISTORY. A TRUE NOIR. The film really does what it said in the preface, it is a romantic and tragic memory. Cagney is also great? A wonderful performance beyond the times, slap the thigh! Cool brother plus cool brother's rivalry is so charming, I just don't know who to watch, it's so fun! Walsh is good at filming, and he really provides inspiration for Wo Zhan, thank you~

Confusion spreads throught the canyons of New York's financial district. And men stare wild-eyed at the spectacle of complete ruin. More than 16 and a half million shares change hands in a single day of frenzied selling. The paper fortunes built up over the last few years crumble into nothing before this disaster which is to touch every man woman and child in America.

An era which will grow more and more incredible with each passing generation until someday people will say it never could have happened at all. April, 1918: almost a million American young men are engaged in a struggle which, they have been told, will make the world safe for democracy.
