As a child in the 1950's, I'd often hear my parents and relatives talk about James Cagney. If I remember correctly, somewhere around age 10-12 my dad and I watched "Angels With Dirty Faces" on TV. I believe it dealt a young adult group commiting various crimes with Cagney, the tough guy head of the group, ending up going to the electric chair at the end. It made me think twice about doing anything criminal and scared scared the hell out of me. As I got a little older, I believe Cagney was pretty much done with acting (this would have been the later 1960's). He's life story seems remarkable when I think about some of the actors and entertainers over the past 20 years. Having seen other films of his as I got older, I can only say he was an intelligent, honest, and remarkable man who never forgot where he came from. He was nothing like some of the films he did; a very humble man at best.

James Cagney was one of the all-time greats, and he could do it all and make it look effortless and, boy, could he dance and towards his latter days, he was a great chat-show guest here in the UK.

I first watched Yankey Doodle Dandy when I was in early grade school in about 1953. I love to see it over & over. I read George M. Cohan's biography when I was in high school. I read James Cagney's bio a few years ago.

[@jackaustin3576]

I really liked him and his movies....

Excellent documentary. One suggestion.....The Bow needs to be pronounced like Wow. It is his final bow. His final curtain call.

It's AI - they gave it away by repeatedly pronouncing Stephen Colbert as Coburt.

i had no idea you are still alive fabulous

[@glennstenbergkvist5971]

A nice salute to JC; but with a few factual problems and some facts and mentions made without previous foundational preparations. For two examples, the director Raoul Walsh was mentioned only as "Walsh" and it was mentioned in the presentation that JC went to work in a show in the role of a chorus girl in 1911 (which would have been at age 11 or 12), but this happened years later. But the clips and stills are well selected and include a few that are seldom seen in other presentations. The voice-over is a little creepy, but offered at a good pace. Overall this is a good introduction to Cagney.

Great review of a guy who just worked to get what he wanted. Honest/ and by all accounts a good man.

[@eamestv]

One of the Hollywood greats. Many superb movies. I just watched Love Me Or Leave Me, with Doris Day. wow. It's a street named after him on 91st between 2nd and 3rd Aves. in NYC. Closed to traffic. I sit there often.

[@jabbermocky4520]

A late friend of mine had an affair with Mr. Cagney when she worked on his horse farm. She was 18 and he was 60. Nowadays we'd say he took advantage of her. She said he was irresistible and she never bore him any ill will.

[@judychapman7157]

Lucky Lady !!!!

[@paulcollinson2970]

Your friend was full of shit

[@jackaustin3576]

A number of very good flying movies with Pat O'Brian wasn't mention....It also wasn't mention anytime that I can remember even his life story with him sitting in his wheelchair....

[@i.marr.6688]

When Cagney came to Ireland to do Shake hands with the devil, They wouldn't let him play because of his gangster films ,they made up a lame excuse about poor weather. The Gaiety playhouse felt Jimmy's name would tarnish its image, They should have welcomed him with open arms. It would have also been very good for the Gaiety for James Cagney to perform there.

[@user-hb1ez2mq9s]

Hey y'all 😮

[@EMScott-le7vu]

Title misleading.informatiom is not shocking

[@wellston2826]

Never saw him give less than a good, solid performance. Usually he was mesmerizing on the screen. The guy could play comedy, drama, and even musicals. And boy what a hoofer. Never heard a bad word against him either, no bad scandals or Hollywood escapades. Good by Mr. Cagney, you made it to the "Top of the World, Ma."

[@donellamackenzie6331]

What shook Hollywood to the core?

[@markjefferies55]

One of the greatest not a flashy poser I think he would have hated todays woke brigade

[@LW-dq2em]

Nothing here shook Hollywood to its core. Clickbait, as usual.

[@carlostrevino1088]

You dirty rat, why did you do that to my brother!

[@moelongval9216]

Cagney was born in1899! This video says that in 1911, he was working in a department store??? At 12 years old??? Where he was discovered as a potential dancer!!! He auditioned to be in a show as a dancing sailor??? A 12 years old!!! Who the hell makes up this BS???

[@gmaureen]

Most kids worked in those days, unless the family was rich, there were no laws against it. Kids worked to help put food on the table. Cagney initially learned to dance on the streets, he told about it in his autobiography, it was called "hoofing." Dancing was a way to spend time, compete with friends, and it didn't cost anything. No BS here, just a different day and time.

[@anthonyfrew1571]

Yes 1899 - The same year as that other gangster and tough guy actor Humphrey Bogart
