One of the ancestors of gangster films, Cagney's acting skills are so good, Bogart is just a younger brother in front of him.

The economic crisis of alcohol smuggling in World War I, from the experience of three soldiers who jumped into a trench, shows the joys and sorrows and madness of that era. ps: The script provides good material for future plots, love crimes and other genres.

@JN - Provence Time Cafe - Issue 185 I have a date with a movie: commercial in the thirties? It is said that the source of many films? The loneliness is written under the lively and flashy appearance, but it is obvious. The first time the male protagonist sees the heroine, he quickly leaves the underage girl; the first time he sends her home, he will leave quietly when he learns that his mother is dead; he fulfills her decisiveness with her little lover.

Panama Smith: I'm sick of watching you try to put out that torch you carry for her with a lot of cheap hooch. Who does the kid look like?
Eddie Bartlett: Like her.
Panama Smith: And they got a nice house.
Eddie Bartlett: Yeah, it's a nice house if you like that kind of a house, but for me, uh, I'll take a hotel anytime. You know that.
Panama Smith: Me too. Ain't it funny how our tastes have always run the same? Ever since the first time we met. I can just picture you living in the suburbs, working in a garden, raising flowers and kids. Wouldn't that be a laugh.
Eddie Bartlett: Yeah, wouldn't I look cute?
