The second film of the Film Committee's spotlight on Film Noir is Angels with Dirty Faces. This lesser known noir, is no less essential. Angels stars James Cagney as Rocky Sullivan, with costars Pat O'Brien and Humphrey Bogart. Tough guy Rocky plays Pied Piper to the Dead End Kids, a street gang, while his childhood friend turned priest Jerry tries to save their souls. The two vie for control of the neighborhood, but when Jerry is almost killed by Rocky's associate (Bogart), Rocky must decide where his loyalties lie.
