Cagney's First On Screen Dance | Taxi! | Warner Archive

Taxi! (1931) #WarnerArchive #WarnerBros #Taxi

A keystone in James Cagney's rise to stardom, Taxi stars the gritty actor as a hardened New York City cab driver. As a corporate interest attempts to eliminate all independent cabbies in the city, Cagney recruits a gang to stand up to them - violently. Directed by Roy Del Ruth, several of the gunfight sequences in the film used live machine-gun bullets. Taxi is also the first film in which Cagney danced and where he spoke his famous line, "You dirty rat!"

Directed By Roy Del Ruth
Starring James Cagney, Loretta Young, George E. Stone
