It’s always
What
you don’t do
And
this is the truth
I
tell you
That’s
far more important
Than
what you do do

ALL-TIME CLASSIC MOVIE FAVOURITES – ANGELS WITH DIRTY FACES (1938)
“Angels with Dirty Faces” is a Crime Drama, screenplay by John Wexley and Warren Duff, from a story by Rowland Brown and Directed by Michael Curtiz.
It’s the story of two boyhood friends, Rocky Sullivan (James Cagney) and
Jerry Connolly (Pat O'Brien) who were running from the police one night when
Rocky was caught.
After he was arrested, he went into the prison system and became a
lifelong criminal, while Jerry went straight and became a Catholic Priest and
ministered to people in the same neighbourhood where he and Rocky grew up.
When Rocky is released from prison after his latest term, he resumes his
criminal lifestyle and is hero worshipped by many of the local kids.
Jerry is worried that the kids will follow Rocky down the wrong path
into the criminal world and works hard to keep them on the straight and narrow.
But no matter what he says he can’t get through to them, even after
Rocky is convicted of murder and sentenced to the electric chair, so Jerry
visits him on death row and asks him for one last favour.
A classic of the genre, with extraordinary acting by James Cagney, ably
complimented by Pat O'Brien as his friend, Humphrey Bogart who is the perfect
actor as the arch villain, and the radiant Ann Sheridan adds a feminine touch.
WHATS IN A NAME (27)
Does anyone know if Alfred Sung?
Does
anyone think is Sean Young?
Does
anyone know is Koo Stark?
I KNOW THIS TO BE TRUE
I know this to be true
In
the early morning gloom
No
child will ever
Throw
up in the bathroom
