  • Man! I knew obviously they had gay people back then, but I didn't know the exact same kind of stereotype effeminate camp existed!

  • How camp was that dresser?

  • This was a great scene and shamelessly wonderfully campy. My fantasy of this scene is James Cagney stripped to just his boxer shorts and T-shirt, socks and shoes. I think the result would have been very differently when the tailor commented about Cagney's muscle and of course the tailoring measurements below the waist. Thanks for the posting of this video.

  • Pre code hollywood produced some of the best movies ever!! Especially if you compare it to movies from the 40s which are comparably a lot more boring in my opinion

  • Cagney is so believable

  • @einhvers They would. It's great comic relief for sure. Yeah, they are mock-gay in the worst sense, but this is 1931, so even gay chaps ought to have a great laugh at this!

  • @fruityshite No, it's Mr. Alnut and this is The African Queen.

  • Wow, that's pretty gay for 1931. 

  • that is one nice dimple on the man's tie

  • oh sir this is were u need all the room haha that was gay but no one ever said the word gay they refured the word to as it also gay ment happy that part of the movie very funny

  • bumblebee you are a little mixed up, WASrul got it right. this is from public enemy, he was simply correcting fruityshite for

    a. getting the name of this wrong

    b. getting the name of what he incorrectly thought this was jumbled up

  • @WASrul Your words are about as confusing as possible. If you're saying this if from White Heat, that's impossible, since that movie was in 1949.
