A variety of good songs and performances. Cagney is very entertaining, in his sly comic dialogue and his talent for singing and dancing.

James Cagney completely breaks type in this bold and interesting portrayal of a vaudevillian actor-turned composer. The film itself has a good number of energetic and interesting song and dance numbers, but the biographical story itself is also fascinating and well-done.

A great musical with James Cagney. Most people don't think of Gagney as a song and dance man, but he is really good.

A great musical with an INCREDIBLE performance by Cagney. I did not realize it was based on a true story which makes it even better. At only 2 hrs, it does seem winded at times. Still it is one of the better all around musicals.
