I was told many years ago,,''all that is written will be read''
I wrote my web about four years ago when a guy from the States got hold of my phone number (from a friend) and ask me how many films and tv shows I had been in ?.
I looked back through my diaries and decided to write it all down. (it took me months) I'm glad I did it..
RAGTIMEDirector Milos Forman
Cast Inc JAMES CAGNEYPat OBrienDonald OConnor
This cast is a blast from the past
We film for a few days at Oxford and for me it doesnt get any better than this.
The scenes are interior of a big office and Im dressed as a US cop.
Pat OBrien came onto the set first and shook hands with many of the Supporting Artists (Including me) How are you son, you look good he said..
Well thats the best way for me to start the day because now I felt good that this man had taken time to welcome all of us.
Pat moved around the room chatting to cast and crew alike and we were all waiting for the main man to arrive on set..
The noise was quite deafening until someone said Hes here.
You could have heard a pin drop as the main man entered the set.
Everyone stood and applauded and waited for James Cagney to take his position on the set before silence resumed.
There they were in front of me my two heroes of the black and white days of cinema.
I think Ive seen every film that James has made (Some of them many times)
I feel sorry for the kids of today that never got to see hes early films and think a good film today has to be bombarded with special effects to make it work.
Let me list some of films of James Cagney to let the kids of today and tomorrow know what they have missed.
The Public Enemy (1931), Scarface (1932), Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942), White Heat (1949). Then in the 50s Love Me Or Leave Me (With Doris Day), Mr Roberts. (With a young Jack Lemmon).
I could watch all these films again and never tire.
This was to be James Cagneys last film and I would like to say, thank you Mr Cagney for entertaining me for so many years.
Aitch,
