Young Biff Grimes is the son of an Irishman who's better at blarney than at holding down a job. Determined to make something of himself, Biff takes a mail-order course in dentistry and practices his handiwork on dear old dad. In his spare time he manages to fall for Virginia Brush, "the strawberry blonde," but unfortunately Virginia is more interested in Hugo Barnstead, an up-and-coming financier. Virginia has another girl in mind for Biff: her best friend Amy, a suffragette with plenty of spunk.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Rare romantic comedic turn for Cagney submitted by alliecat on July 30, 2023, 5:42pm Jimmy Cagney was well-known for his turn as gangsters and criminals, such as in classics "Public Enemy" and "Angels With Dirty Faces". This is a rare film showcasing his softer side, in a love triangle opposite two of the most beautiful and talented actresses of the day: Rita Hayworth and Olivia de Havilland. Every actor in the film gives a great performance and the story will have your heart.

If afterward you find you're drawn to Cagney as a romantic and sentimental figure, "City for Conquest" is another great one to see.
