Ausgewählte Rezension
If you like James Cagney, and I sure do, you'll love this comedy melodrama from the pre-code years at Warner Brothers. Cagney portrays a cheap hoodlum who falls in with a gang of petty con artists, gets wrapped on the knucklesl by the long arm of the law, and winds up becoming a movie matinee idol. It's fun all the way, with enough wise-cracking dialogue, rapid action, car chases, gunfire, and double-dealing to satisfy any fan of the early gangster films, yet it's a lively, tongue-in-cheek comedy from start to finish. Enjoy!

Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesFor the scene when Dan Quigley hauls Myra Gale across the apartment floor by her hair and throws her out the door, James Cagney taught his co-star Mae Clarke an old stage trick. When Cagney grabbed hold of Clarke's hair (holding her by the top of her head), Clarke reached up and grabbed Cagney's wrist with both hands. This put her weight on Cagney's wrist, instead of on her hair. Clarke then held on to Cagney's wrist, screaming, as he dragged her across the room.
- PatzerAfter the robbery of the wealthy woman's home, the paper says a maid was struck and seriously injured, and later in Dan Quigley's office, they're still talking about a maid who screams. Later, when the guy who actually hit her comes back scared, he says the butler died.
The owner of the house where Dan was taken after the "car accident" was Mrs. Wilbur Marley. This was the house where the maid was "slugged". The butler who "croaked" was "on the Crosby job".
- Zitate
Spade Maddock: [discussing diamond-studded Mrs. Marley at the gang's speakeasy] C'mere - take a gander at her.
Dan Quigley: [eyeing her through a peephole] Did you say "gander?" I wonder how she'd go for a goose.
