City for Conquest

Ex-Golden Gloves fighter Danny Kenny has it all worked out. He'll turn pro to bankroll his brother's dream of writing a symphonic paean to the teeming city where they both live: New York. But life pulls the sidewalk out from under Danny when he's blinded during a brutal 15-round welterweight title bout. James Cagney plays Danny in this heart-tugging melodrama co-starring Ann Sheridan Anthony Quinn film-debuting Arthur Kennedy and in a rare acting turn before becoming a director Elia Kazan. Among familiar studio players there's an unbilled one: a vivid backlot and rear-screen Manhattan. "Sometimes we wonder" The New York Times' Bosley Crowther wrote "whether it wasn't really the Warner brothers who got New York from the Indians so diligent and devoted have they been in feeling the great city's pulse."Running Time: 104 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA UPC: 012569791770 Manufacturer No: 79177
