LADY
KILLER.
James
Cagney & Mae Clarke,
Leslie Fenton, Margaret Lindsay, Henry O Neill.
Dir: Roy Del Ruth, 1933,
Warner Bros.
SYNOPSIS:
Reuniting
the stars of the Public Enemy, this quickie
was a smash in the US. Its story concerns a cinema usher who turns into
a hoodlum, flees to California and turns himself into a movie star. I've
never seen it but it sounds cool.
REVIEWS:
"Hectic
slam-bang action comedy. Great fun."
- Leslie Halliwell.
"An all-time high in roughneck character work
even for this rough and tumble star."
- Variety.
"A kind of resume of everything he has done to
date."
- New York Evening Posts.
"Sprightly, more or less daring, thoroughly entertaining."
- New York World Telegram.
