Raoul Walsh's The Roaring Twenties is a classic crime drama that captures the rise and fall of bootleggers in Prohibition-era New York. Following World War I, three returning servicemen—Eddie Bartlett (James Cagney), George Hally (Humphrey Bogart), and Lloyd Hart (Jeffrey Lynn)—find themselves drawn into the lucrative but dangerous world of illegal alcohol trade. While Eddie leads the operation, Hally's growing ambition sparks a treacherous power struggle that spans a decade.
With gripping performances and a sharp portrayal of organized crime, this Criterion Collection edition is a must-have for fans of classic Hollywood cinema.
