Review of 'G' Men (1935) by Rick Q — 13 Aug 2012
Fine James Cagney crime drama. Cagney is one of the original G-Men, though he was raised by a crime kingpin (echoed later in "The Departed" and "Infernal Affairs"). Loads of gunplay for a classic film.
An exciting and engaging film. And if you're wondering why the gangsters only use revolvers and lever-action rifles, production codes at the time forbade showing criminals on screen using Thompson Sub-Machine Guns and the like for fear it would corrupt youths.
