Dynamic James Cagney...A Genius Actor

1930s FILMS ARE WILD!  Thinking today of the feisty movies of the clever James Cagney.  I know one of my favorite films is the sleek gangster story that William Wellman made a fine film of...Of course I am making reference to the interesting cinematic work called 'The Public Enemy.' Watched this thing again recently and was enthused about the picaresque, poignant acting skills shown by James Cagney, the magnificent Jean Harlow and the crafty Joan Blondell.  Mr. Cagney is so unique because he so dominates the screen when he is on camera.  Also, the smoldering beauty Jean Harlow is a lot of fun to watch for she has a shiny feminine set of qualities that prove to be enchanting.

Nice Writing

THE GOOD terse writing of Ernest Hemingway is a real joy.  He does not use too many adjectives.  His 'Torrents' is a fine tome.
