A look into the "golden age" of organized crime, "The Public Enemy" ultimately established several conventions of the gangster flick. Most will enjoy James Cagney's fast-talking performance, riddled with gangland slang, and the image of Cagney's character waiting in the rain will haunt the viewer's mind for ever.

This review of The Public Enemy (1931) was written by on 30 Mar 2008.
