Tony Williams recommends: " As we've moved into "death row" scenes why not include the 1933 boxing movie melodrama KING FOR A NIGHT starring Chester Morris? It includes a poignant "last mile" scene with the hero's minister father accompanying him to the chair. However, unlike the post Hays Code ANGELS WITH DIRTY FACES, Morris does not "crack" and get religion at the last moment. He goes to his death heroically and realistically, believing in maintaining the courage of his convictions. His father understands this and silently recognizes his son's integrity. A really beautiful scene from a rarely seen movie." For that matter, there's MANHATTAN MELODRAMA with William Powell and Clark Gable as boyhood friends who wind up in the governor's chair and the electric chair, respectively. This movie, of course, is legendary as the film John Dillinger was watching at the Biograph Theater in Chicago, before being gunned down by Melvin Purvis and the FBI. Is it ANGELS WITH DIRTY FACES where Jimmy Cagney fakes cowardice at death in order to keep the Dead End Kids from a life of crime?
