The Roaring Twenties - Movie Review Reformed Fruit Movie Reviews

    • Críticas de cine

The Roaring Twenties was a 1939 crime noir/thriller starring James Cagney, Priscilla Lane, Humphrey Bogart, and Gladys George. 

It's always awesome seeing Cagney in the gangster role, and double cool to see him paired with Bogart. I also love older films like this one, made in the late 30's, but essentially depicting events from the 1910's through the early 1930's. It even gives a little bit of a history lesson, showing clips of "current" world events (pics of Hitler and Mussolini and so on) then setting the context of what was going on back in the "roaring twenties", some 100 years ago. Great stuff.
