(1934)
2.5
Hans J. Wollstein
The reinforcement of the production code in July of 1934 took some of the wind out of James Cagney, at least for a little while. Yes, it is the same old Jimmy we meet en route to Monterey in He Was Her Man, but this time he pays for his crimes. Also along for the ride is old co-star Joan Blondell, who gives up her streetwalking to marry Victor Jory even though she still loves Jimmy. Audiences actually liked the non-apologetic Blondell of yore better, but nothing was the same again in Hollywood after July of 1934, at least not for the next couple of decades.
