Summary: CAGNEY IS REMARKABLE!
Comment: If you haven't seen this movie; it is PRICELESS! Cagney gives what might be the best performance of his life. He should have gotten an Academy Award for this touching yet strong role. Highly recommended!

Summary: Chaney bio
Comment: This was always a must see whenever it played on TV when I was a kid, so I'm very pleased to have my own copy that I can watch any time I desire. Jimmy Cagney gives a bravura performance as Lon Chaney, Sr. One of my favorite scenes is when he first gets to Hollywood and is taught what background extras do. He whips open his makeup kit to transform himself into a pirate. Great!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Only ONE reason to watch this DVD
Comment: James Cagney was Great in this film, it stands out as one of my favorites of all time. It showcases the career of Lon Chaney and his tumultuous marriage to his wife, played by Dorothy Malone, who has a diffult time accepting Lon's folks because they are Deaf Mutes and an even more diffult time accepting the fact that the child she is carrying could end up the same way.
I have waited for years for this movie to make it to DVD and it is finally here and the transfer is excellent, but granted, I'm not as nit picky as some. I highly reccomend this one folks.

Summary: Oscar Performance By Cagney
Comment: In my opinion this is Cagney at his best. How he did not win an oscar for best actor I'll never know. Here Cagney stir's up many emotions from the audience, laughter,sadness,drama & fear!.
