Made 8 yrs later, on the brink of WW2, but about the same time period as Public Enemy, Cagney plays another nuance of his tough softie. Directed by Raoul Walsh, who ovetly makes the link between crime inc and prohibition.

Movies in the early 30s glorified wealth and crime.
Not to say there werent rich karmic commeuppance for the hero/antihero.
Tonight, back to back James Cagney. His blend of good bad guy, made him a popular favorite.
From 1931 Public Enemy
a film about the bootleg business.
look back and see what things were like during the Great Depression when this film was made.

#FilmNoir
My favorite film genre.
1 with which I am familiar.
grown up and old
watching these fascinating
celluloid slices of nearly a century ago.
The stars and esemble players are woven into my psyche as memory.
just as surely if we were pals.
