this be what jam cagney be all about and wisecrack and cockiness and hard a nail and no nonsense charisma . although the plot sound serious and the film be anything but . it be do in the 30 screwball comedy style and work well with his bicker with fiancé mae clark and his reaction to the tall story of his colleague james burke . what raise it above normal be the dialogue and the cast that deliver it . dialogue be good but it be nothing unless delivery be spot on and can bounce about the character involve . this be do well by all throughout . good entertainment and thoroughly enjoyable .
