Picture carries plenty of dramatic punch.

Brilliant, if dated but Cagney is pitch-perfect in this and runs a gamut of emotions. The final scene with him and Peg will have you blubbing like an idiot.

One of my favourites! Cagney turns in a heartbreakingly real performance

I love these old boxer movies, Cagney is perfect for this part too. I loved this movie it's really dramatic and exciting. I highly recommend it.

in "city for conquest", james cagney gives a hell of a performance. he brings a good amount of welcomed humor as well as the necessary emotions required for such a role. i found this film to be really entertaining, ang was on the edge of my seat during the big fight scene.
