产生了许多奇妙的共鸣,whirling sound/angel feathers这实在太像詹神的经历了...对于alcoholic的心理和戒断过程做了通俗的描绘,Cagney表演很出色,极富感染力地展示了alcoholic的内心世界。最后又变成《**者》一样的智擒黑帮有点不太对付了...不过剧本就这样写也没办法。两个I‘m home表情不同、心境不同,却是一样心酸sigh. 报社这个“家”其实何尝不是像酒精一样,是再次失去一切的他唯一的归宿呢?不知道Lew和Charley是否有点同性subtext哦,一个居家做饭调饮料、苦口婆心,一个出门搬砖、回家后等吃等喝,还吵吵架谈谈心啥的,完全是**生活,表情也很恩爱的样子。50年代敢有这种,厉害了。拍得也不错的,Cagney洗手时发现侄儿在拿枪那scene拍得绝了。
