This is what I imagine Lon Chaney's life would have been like if he had been James Cagney. Unfortunately I wondered what the "man of mystery" himself was really like, and care little for another soap-opera twisting of reality by Hollywood script-writers.
Yes, there are people out here who are actually looking to learn something about the subjects of biopics and, once more, we have an example of the fictionalisation of fact Hollywood-style. What is the point?
Don't tell me that the truth doesn't matter; people actually believe this stuff and it is apparently fundamentally untrue.

Lon Chaney was an incredible treasure of his time; and James Cagney an incredible treasure of his. To have both in the same work, and have that work be the epitome of artistic and technical achievement is a gift to the generations to come. Hopefully, they'll have the sense to appreciate both men!

Although, as Cagney himself pointed out in his autobiography, a great deal of this film is fictitious and, unfortunately, for very important reasons, this is still a fine piece of entertainment with a great cast -- the sort that, sadly, we don't seem to have these days. Pleasant enough as the young Chaney's eventual meeting, in the film, with his mother is, in reality, Cagney revealed that young Chaney did, indeed, once go to see his mother. A man answered the door and went inside to tell the woman her son was at the door. Chaney overheard her telling the man to let her son know she wasn't home as a means of getting rid of him. The hurt stayed with Chaney for the rest of his life and since Chaney was still alive when the picture was made, none of that could be included in the film.

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!

Finally, this classic is available again on DVD. I've been waiting several years! This is a great movie starring Jimmy Cagney about one of Hollywood's legends, Lon Changey.
