Gangster Movie: Angels with Dirty Faces

on BBC Two England

Starring James Cagney, Pat O'Brien, Ann Sheridan, Humphrey Bogart
One of the great Warner Brothers gangster films featuring Cagney, Bogart and the Dead End Kids in a crusading tale about two New York slum boys who grow up to be on opposing sides of the fence - one a gangster and the other a priest. Cagney in the complex role of ' 'Rocky' Sullivan gives a fascinating study of a tough, unscrupulous yet oddly likeable gangster.
