Jimmy the Gent

Comedy • Unrated • Directed by: Michael Curtiz • 68 minutes

Academy Award winners James Cagney and Bette Davis star as a less-than-scrupulous private detective and the woman he loves--who has just left him for an even less scrupulous employer. Jimmy Corrigan (Gagney) is jealous when his operative and sweatheart, Joan Martin (Davis), goes to work for Charles Wallingham (Alan Dinehart) because Wallingham seems to have much more class than Corrigan. But Corrigan discovers that Wallingham is just as crooked as Corrigan; he's just better at concealing it. Now--even as Corrigan tricks an eyewitness into marrying a guilty client so she can't testify in court--he must proove Wallingham is a crook to win Martin back.
