I only voted an 8 because the movie took on a gangster theme, but I guess it had to because that was Cagneys selling point. Other than that, I loved the movie. Being in recovery myself I could relate a lot to it and the trouble some people have getting sober. It really portrays the ugliness of alcoholism and the main sober character's( who dies) way to stay sober. The acting was great and the scene where there was a choice to drink or be shot showed the fear of drinking they had. Being shot would be easier. Cagneys character, although he did not really believe in a 12 step program, knew that helping others would save him. He went out of his way, knowing that ex-drunks make good employees,to get people jobs in the newspaper.
