Spanning a lively decade in the career of one of Hollywood's greatest stars, The James Cagney Signature Collection highlights Cagney's versatility beyond the gangster roles he was best known for. You won't find any of Jimmy's hard-boiled classics in this five-disc set, but you'll find plenty to enjoy, with each film given the care and respect we've come to expect from Warner Bros.' archival DVD releases. From the World War I heroism of The Fighting 69th to the musical extravaganza The West Point Story, these five films represent fully one-third of Cagney's movie output from 1940 to 1950, and they're all above-average showcases for Cagney's enduring appeal. For sheer entertainment value, the best of the bunch is 1940's Torrid Zone, a still-delightful comedy teaming Jimmy with his best pal Pat O'Brien and Hollywood's "Oomph Girl," Ann Sheridan, in a savvy send-up of tropical adventure. Cagney loved working with O'Brien (who also costars in The Fighting 69th), and this collection also highlights Cagney's generous penchant for surrounding himself with some of Hollywood's best-loved character actors, like George Tobias, Alan Hale (Sr. and Jr.), George Brent, and others. And while 1941's The Bride Came C.O.D. teamed Cagney and Bette Davis for the second and final time (resulting in a breezy comedy that shows both stars at their most endearing), 1942's Captains of the Clouds is a standard-yet-sturdy example of Hollywood's wartime patriotism, with Cagney (in his first Technicolor feature) as a seasoned pilot recruited into the Royal Canadian Air Force. The latest film in this batch, 1950's The West Point Story, was conspicuously promoted to capitalize on Cagney's Oscar-winning role in 1942's Yankee Doodle Dandy, and while it's the most dated movie in this set, it's still got plenty to offer in terms of Cagney's unique style of showmanship.

As with previous Signature Collections, Warner Bros. has done a spectacular job of bringing these films to DVD. Picture and sound quality are uniformly superb throughout, and each film is accompanied by a variety of "Night at the Movies" short subjects, specifically organized to approximate the experience of seeing these films in their original theatrical context. Vintage newsreels, Warner Bros. cartoons (both "Looney Tunes" and/or "Merrie Melodies"), documentary shorts, and movie trailers are all included here, some seen for the first time in decades and chronologically corresponding to the feature presentation. No other studio cares for its library as passionately as Warner Bros., and The James Cagney Signature Collection is further proof that there's a wide and appreciative audience for DVD sets that showcase great stars while honoring Hollywood's history and the nostalgic pleasure of "a night at the movies." --Jeff Shannon

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - He's not just a tough guy, see?
I'm a huge Cagney fan and admittedly, I prefer him in the gangster-type roles he does best. However, this collection gives us the Cagney performances that aren't as well-known but are more examples of his versatility. The best movie in this bunch is "The Bridge Came COD" with Bette Davis. It's charming and funny because both of them have such strong personalities, it's very amusing to watch them fight. There aren't many actors that can upstage Cagney like Bette Davis. "The Fighting 69th" and "Torrid ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - No worries, no one gets their face caved in with a grapefruit in this DVD set
James Cagney burst on the scene in the 1930s and very quickly proved his ability to menace or charm at the drop of a hat. An undersized powderkeg gifted with fast-talking blarney and nimble swagger, dude certainly made plenty of bank for Warner Brothers studios even as he quickly became typecast into those tough guy parts. It's a bit of a nudge in the ribs for me that this DVD set is titled JAMES CAGNEY: THE SIGNATURE COLLECTION, because the collected cinema here aren't by any means considered his most ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - James Cagney - The Signature Collection
James Cagney at his very best in 5 of his classic movies. A must for any James Cagney Fan. Enjoy



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - james cagney collection
I ordered this collection for my Dad hoping it would get to him in time for Fathers' Day. I didn't really give myself enough time to be certain that it would arrive in time. To my surprise it arrived days before the event. My Dad loves the collection, the quality was excellent, there was so much variety of talent to enjoy. Every so often my Dad puts in a DVD to watch over again because James Cagney was so exceptional. He was a son & dance man, and a terrific actor, he was convincing in every role he ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Here's wishing for a second Cagney collection
the James Cagney Signature collection, is a great way to introduce Cagney's non gangster films to a new generation of film fans.
Most people only know of his tough guy/gangster films. Such as White Heat
the Public Enemy. or "G"Men.
But Jimmy Cagney was such a versitile actor. That he could and did play
other type of people. Singers, dancers, circus performers. young lover,
soilder, admirals and the hardest role of all, playing another actor.
As he did in "Man of a ... Read More
