sambox Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I cannot remember the name of this movie, all I remember is there was a gangster who I think was hiding out with a bunch of neighborhood kids. One of the kids said to him upon meeting, 'press the flesh'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronson22 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Can't vouch for the "Press the flesh" part, but the description sounds like "Dead End". Gangster Humphrey Bogart goes back to his old neighborhood and hangs out with the Dead End kids. First movie to feature the Bowery Boys, I believe. Good movie.

sambox Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 Thanks. It wasn't any of the dead end kids movies. The kids were much younger and the lead actor wasn't Bogart. I really enjoyed all the dead end kids movies though when I was a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambox Posted September 10, 2012 Author Share Posted September 10, 2012 Thanks but no it wasn't James Cagney. The lead actor was tall and not a major actor if I remember correctly. I have been trying to search for the lead actor because strangely enough I kind of remember his face but not his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
