"What do you do? What do you say?" - We're going all the way back to 1938 for this year's selection as Liam brings Angels With Dirty Faces to the table. This week we're headed to Hell's Kitchen and learning about two boys, one who ran just a bit faster than the other and the impact it had on our lives. Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew – Ian, Liam, Ellie, and Georgia. It's a debatably yellow 48th episode as we discuss:
- Which of these classic actors made the best impression on us
- Some great stories about the Dead End Kids and a run in with James Cagney
- Whether or not all the principal players in this film are necessary
- What's the likelihood these kids can read these newspapers in order to give so much exposition to the audience
- How important are the secondary characters in this film?
- There's an all-time argument about whether something occurred or not
- Which Hollywood legend left an extremely underwhelming impact on us
- A crazy story about special effects in Hollywood in the 1930s
- What do we make of the ending. Was Cagney actually cowardly in the end?
- Is this the greatest last 10 minutes in cinematic history?
- Whether or not Angels With Dirty Faces is the Best Film Ever
