🎥 The Public Enemy, Little Caesar & Citizen Kane-TCM 2/25🎬

Back to back triple threat treats......All EST

 

8:00p The Public Enemy - James Cagney, Joan Blondell & Jean Harlow

2 Irish kids from Chicago grow up to become bootleggers.  Both murder their way to power.

 

9:45p Little Caesar - Edward G Robinson, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr

A small time crook who aspires to be a big time gangster is hired by a mob boss.

The movie ending is considered an Edward G. Robinson classic.

 

11:15p Citizen Kane - Orsen Wells, Joseph Cotten.  Director:  Orson Wells

When a newspaper tycoon dies, a reporter seeks to investigate his life & the MEANING of his LAST dying word.

Took me seeing this LOOOONG movie 3xs to figure out the "meaning of the dying word."hidemf3.gif

HINT:  You must watch this move to the VERY END!

Intense line-up!

 

Cagney's energy in "The Public Enemy"--  phenomenal.  There's no one like him in movies. (And I don't even like gangster pictures.)   The "grapefruit scene" in this made a huge impact at the time...
