Cagney, agent of O77

13 Rue Madeleine (1947)

Directed by Henry Hathaway this film stars James Cagney, Annabella, Richard Conte and Frank Latimore. During WW2 American spies attempt to feed false information through an unsuspecting German double agent.

Not as historically accurate as it claims to be this film is still a pretty decent spy film even if it is not overly remarkable. The later parts are the ones that stretch credibility the most but the plot does hold together at least. Some of Cagney's fight scenes are a little questionable but otherwise this is not a badly made film.


3/5
