CAGNEY-40654-1.jpg
CAGNEY (James, 1899-1986, American Actor)

Fine Autograph Letter Signed 'Jim' to 'Dear Anne' saying that "The piece on Ireland's film industry was excellent. I'm pleased [John] Huston is taking a hand as he has a driving ego that could get the boys and girls moving. The job that we did there was very efficiently handled and the technicians all did their work very well and very willingly. There was none of the 'that's not my department' that I could see. All pulled together ... had an English director who didn't know his behind from a tin bucket but he could do very little to hurt things. The direction was largely explicit in the writing which is as it should be and things moved along well. His name is Michael Anderson'. Haven't heard of him lately. The Cohan play is not going to be easy. I've had some scripts sent to me over the years which tried to capture the flavor of the man and his times and they were all sadly lacking in any real excitement. They say they have some great music which he had written but had never published.

Autograph Letter Signed to 'My dear Sir', saying "Mr. & Mrs. Walton ... have also been mentioned to me by Dowling, ... who you may recollect in our young days in Society, but I have I regret to say no vacancies or any probability at present ... in lines of acting so important as they wish to fill ... My people ... find themselves so comfortable", if they can meet in London "it will give me the greatest possible pleasure to take so dear a friend by the hand. How many generations of our contemporaries have 'shuffled off' since you and I first met, & here we are still. Fortune has given me many hard nuts, but I hope she has used you more kindly", 2 sides 8vo., York, 9th September
