This is a remake of the more know James Cagney film The Crowd Roars (1932). Both Frank McHugh & Regis Toomey reprise their roles, including using footage from the original movie. This time it's Cagney's pal Pat O'Brien that takes the lead with John Payne taking the role of the kid brother. A pleasant replacement is Ann Sheridan as one of the girls. I would still go for the freshness of the '32 version, but the films are practically identical, so there is no real reason to see both.
