1	Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942) more movies like this directed by Hugh MacMullan, Michael Curtiz featuring James Cagney, Joan Leslie, Walter Huston, Richard Whorf, Irene Manning Yankee Doodle Dandy is no more the true-life story of George M. Cohan than The Jolson Story was the unvarnished truth about Al Jolson -- but who the heck cares? Dandy has song, dance, pathos, pageantry, uproarious comedy, and, best of all, James Cagney at his Oscar-winning best. After several failed attempts to bring the life of legendary, flag ... see all copies from $3.24! new only from $22.99!

Thus, ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $6.99!
4	Love Me or Leave Me (1955) more movies like this directed by Charles Vidor featuring Doris Day, James Cagney, Cameron Mitchell, Robert Keith, Tom Tully One of the gutsiest movie musicals of the 1950s, Love Me or Leave Me is the true story of 1930s torch-singer Ruth Etting, here played by Doris Day. While working in a dime-a-dance joint, Ruth is discovered by Chicago racketeer Martin "The Gimp" Snyder (fascinatingly played with nary a redeeming quality by James Cagney). The smitten Snyder exerts ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $15.48!
5	White Heat (1949) more movies like this directed by Raoul Walsh featuring James Cagney, Virginia Mayo, Edmond O'Brien, Steve Cochran, Margaret Wycherly In later years, James Cagney regarded White Heat with a combination of pride and regret; while satisfied with his own performance, he tended to dismiss the picture as a "cheap melodrama." Seen today, White Heat stands as one of the classic crime films of the 1940s, containing perhaps Cagney's best bad-guy portrayal. The star plays criminal ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $15.33!

Both characters are all but eliminated in the film version, which only concentrates ... see all copies from $5.84! new only from $7.18!
8	The West Point Story (1950) more movies like this directed by Roy Del Ruth featuring James Cagney, Virginia Mayo, Doris Day, Gordon MacRae, Gene Nelson James Cagney delivers a vibrant performance as a down-on-his-luck Broadway musical director in The West Point Story, featuring songs by Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne. Cagney plays out-of-work director Elwin "Bix" Bixby, who reluctantly accepts a job from producer Harry Eberhart (Roland Winters) to stage a show at West Point written by Harry's nephew ... see all copies from $7.96! new only from $7.96!

13 view cover	The Seven Little Foys (1955) more movies like this directed by Melville Shavelson featuring Bob Hope, James Cagney, Milly Vitale, Angela Clarke, George Tobias With his movie career fading in 1955, Bob Hope was amenable to writer/director Mel Shavelson's suggestion that Hope try something different. The Seven Little Foys was the first of Hope's two "straight" biopics (the second was 1956's Beau James).
