5.0 out of 5 stars Cagney - Cinema's greatest tough guy, 3 Jan 2006
By A Customer
Forget Pacino, De Niro and all other pretenders. James Cagney was without doubt cinema's greatest tough guy - and his influence on modern cinema lives on today in shape of Goodfellas, Mean Streets, Once Upon A Time in America, Scarface and many many more that were inspired by his movies. Throughout the 1930's and late 1940's he electrified the screen headlining some of the best gangster movies of the period - The Public Enemy, The Roaring Twenties, Angels With Dirty Faces & White Heat. He had that special quality that separated him from the rest - a kind of kinetic energy that gave him the ability to let fly and give everything in his performances. When Cagney is on screen you cannot take your eyes off him & thats what makes him a true cinematic great.

Warner Bros brought together the four movies mentioned above in this superb box set. The Public Enemy (1931) sees Cagney in his breakthrough role as Tom Powers - who rises from small town hoodlum to big time gangster. The Roaring Twenties (1939) sees Cagney star alongside Humphrey Bogart as an ex war hero who gets involved over his head in bootlegging during the Prohibition era. Angels With Dirty Faces (1938) sees Cagney star with Pat O'Brien as two friends whose lives take dramatically different paths. Cagney is Rocky Sullivan who takes to a life of crime while Pat O'Brien becomes a man of the cloth as Father Jerry Connelly. However a conflict of interests soon arises when Rocky takes a group of youths (known as "The Dead-End Kids") under his wing much to the dismay of Father Jerry who is trying to make them lead a honest life. Finally & a personal favourite is the glorious White Heat (1949). Starring alongside Pat O'Brien & Virginia Mayo, Cagney is gang leader Cody Jarrett - a ruthless criminal who suffers from headaches that drive him insane & harbours a loving devotion for his ma. Who can forget the final scenes - "Made it Ma - Top of the World!!"

Verdict:

An excellent box set for both Cagney fans and lovers of gangster movies alike - enjoy the early exploits of a cinematic great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top Class Cagney!, 9 Oct 2007
By David Lusher (London England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This boxed set contains four of James Cagney's best films. They are all superb, with great stories and strong performances. Each is a classic in its own right. It's nice to see a set that is not padded out with work of lesser quality. This is a must buy for all Cagney (and gangster film) fans.
