Product Description:
James Cagney gives a tour-de-force performance in his tough-guy portrayal of a petty hoodlum who rises to big-time gangster.Running Time: 82 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA UPC: 012569690622
Amazon.com essential video:
Director William Wellman (Wings), a World War I veteran who turned his experiences in battle into an insistence on unpretentious violence in his films, made Public Enemy a particularly brutal account of the rise and fall of a monstrous gangster (James Cagney).

At least, two scenes of THE PUBLIC ENEMY are already part of history: the grapefruit squeezed over the face of James Cagney's girl-friend and the final apparition of Cagney more spectacular than any movie ...

Tom Powers (James Cagney) is a heel and has been ever since childhood when he and his friend Matt Doyle (Edward Woods) used to steal beer and torment the neighborhood. Now he's all grown up and he has moved on to bigger but not better things. From manhandling his women (Mae Clarke) to murdering old pals, Tom is nothing short of a terror. In spite of his nastiness, one can't help but like him and hope that he gets away with his terrible deeds.
The use of violence in the film is interesting. ... Read More

Public Ememy is a classic "period piece" that takes you back to that time & place in American history (which is what the truely great period movies do) and it still "hold up well" even though it is going on 80 years old.
