Filmed in color, this minor musical was directed by Charles Lederer. Cagney plays a good-hearted labor leader and gets to sing and dance a little. Jones does a lively musical number, too. One of the highlights is a duet between Cagney and Williams. The film has a running time of 94 minutes and has been released on home video, as well as featured on American Movie Classics.
