Why only one pizza, and only a six pack??

What a strange little wonderful movie... I just love Cagney.... I guess I like all the Cagney's. With his sister in the movie, and his brother producing, you can't go wrong with the gang of C's. Really enjoyed this movie.

The Time Of Your Life . What a fabulous rendition of the dreams and struggles of humanity. James Cagney was superb and his character full of love and compassion! Every actor was delightful!!! Thank you!......

Wayne Morris World War II decorated Ace Fighter Pilot hero who shot down 7 confirmed Japanese zeros and several non confirmed planes also sinking a escort vessel,a gunboat,and helped sinking a submarine and damaged a heavy cruiser. He was awarded 4 distinguished flying crosses and 2 air metals. He died at an early age of 45 and he is buried in Arlington National Cemetery for war heroes.

Damn Cagney has a presence about him.Facial expressions alone are all it takes him to convey a thought,feeling etc.

One of the old school truly great. Song, dance, act! He could do it all.

One of the most "feel good" movies you will EVER see!! :):)

We get caught up in our own everyday problems. A refreshing film that allows us to exhale and breathe. The entire cast is excellent. Watch and enjoy the film and feel good again. * * * * * a five star production.

Never seen this before but might very well be my all time favorite Cagney movie. So much depth for a one set movie. Loved it.

This film is truly about nothing . It's about a daily ordinary life. Truly appreciate. Simple but enjoyable. I enjoyed it from the start to the end. No story line but somehow U be hooked. Sensational.

Hmmm, seems there were some TV shows with the same theme, Cheers, Seinfeld come to mind. This was a good movie.

I just had to watch this movie when it appeared on "Recommended" because it starred James Cagney. I'm glad I did!

Cagney was a superb, versatile actor who excelled in so many drama and comedy films. Then we have the great character actor, William Bendix, an outstanding actor, who graced many wonderful films.

This is an absolutely crazy movie. The movie takes us front and center into conversations at the worlds goofiest bar.

Everyone talks about how Marlon Brando revolutionized acting, but I think James Cagney got there first. The first 7 minutes of this film, his performance leaps off the screen. This film is pushing toward being 100 years old, but Cagney is as sparkling & charismatic & submerged in the role as actors who drove home from the set yesterday. There's just this...aliveness to Cagney's performances. It's not just him being himself either, because IRL he was a very modest humble quiet-spoken man. This is an absolutely stellar performance in a great play by Saroyan. The last 10 minutes or so was a little too 'perfect' & over the top for me, but up til then it was pitch-perfect. Thanks so much for uploading this beautiful film.

Almost all along the film I expected for a music-hall show to start, with all those artists, but I realize now the show was at its best and authentic like this. And yes, the cast at the beginning was as friendly, as the the whole film was

brother and sister doing a movie together....they're both very good performers.

This was strange but delightful; simple but artsy; and I loved it!! It made me smile!😌

Alot of jewels of wisdom in this story and I feel like a better man after having seen this movie.

the tap dancer was amazing!

Great movie, great cast. My favorite being James Cagney, always to me the toughest kid, on the block, that it don't pay to cross him. He actually remind me a lot of my 1st husband, because I had looked at him as unbeatable, and not solely in fist fights, just the way he carried himself, with confidence.

Very refreshing to see Cagney in a different kind of role; loved seeing William Bendix (I remember "The Life of Riley" famous TV show back in the 50's. Another favorite of mine was Broderick Crawford in "Highway Patrol" another 50's TV show and who can forget the famous Ward Bond of "Wagon Train". All the greats in one terrific comedy of events. I also loved Wayne Morris as the clumsy and awkward gofer for Cagney. It reminds of an older version of today's "Cheers" where you wanna go where everybody knows your name and they're always glad you came. The Time of Your Life is the best thing that comes to having a heart and soul that I have seen in a long time. Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely enjoyed this movie.

Good and simple movie. Many stars turned up in this film. Also, It would've been nice if Cagney had danced with the pianist. I walked down James Cagney street, often on 91st between 2nd and 3rd ave. In NYC. Great actor and dancer.

I love this films which happen in a pub or restaurant or something like that where the people goes to stay only a few minutes or days and see the life round and round like the end of the novel " Grand Hotel".

Delightful, fun and suspense. Natalie Schaffer is so pretty. Bravo

Wouldn't it be great to hang out at a bar like this all day.

As a play, it's clear the obvious connection this could have had on the television situation comedy "Cheers." I suppose the bartender, "Nick," is the only one whose name is known.

One of my old time actors. RIP.

A lot of great entertainment here.....

I worked with a guy when i was just a teen and then later too in the the 60's and 70's that worked on Bill Cagney's ranch in Granada Hills. He would talk about what a kind and great guy Cagney was when my friend was a very young man. I believe kindness and human heartedness was the hallmark of all three siblings. I can say of my departed friend in passing, "it takes one to know one" amigo. Great film. Thank you!

So much fun to see real acting.

Natalie Schafer, better known as Mrs. Lovey Howell from Gilligan's Island, in this film.

This film is certainly Saroyanesque, and I mean that in a positive way. BTWm RIP Richard Erdman (1925-2019), "Pinball Maniac" in this movie.

Wish this was remastered & cleaned up for a dvd re release

Jeanne Cagney was pretty and a good actress

Hilarious and wonderful.

Simply Genius! JC!!

Broderick Crawford (Detective Matthews - Highway Patrol) as the cop, Natalie Schafer (Mrs. Howell - Gilligan's Island) as one of the 'finer people'., Jimmy Lydon (Henry Aldrich) as the lovestruck lad .. .

Shout out to Reginald Beane. Talented piano player.

Whata wonderful piece ok ctap

...."Colourful" James Barton (loved a 39 lb.midget) was born into a theatrical family on November 1, 1890 in Gloucester City, New Jersey. Barton began performing in minstrel shows and burlesque houses throughout the country in 1898.[2] His years of experience working with African American performers led to his becoming one of the first jazz dancers in America!

@marbleman52

Brenda Jones You said it was "disjointed", and I can understand why you would say that, but Life is often 'disjointed' and does not always flow smoothly in our lives. From looking at this movie, I see that the location of the bar is down by the wharfs; the docks, and that is usually a rough & tumble part of town. The people who would frequent that bar would also be part of that rough & tumble part of society and not where the more educated and 'refined' people with money would live. Now the character Joe...just who was he & where did he come from and why is he at the bar so much? He obviously is educated and has some money ( but we never know just how much he might actually have ), and doesn't fit the typical person from that part of town. At some point in the movie, I wondered if Joe might have been an Angel in disguise, dispensing wisdom and encouragement and champagne to those who came in the place. So Brenda, this gem of a movie is a lot deeper than just what is on the surface. What about the Black piano player; how did he end up in that rough part of town and how did he learn to play; what is his story? The other characters also must have come from a "disjointed" background to wind up as steady customers at this run down bar. I found it all very interesting.
