Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

White Heat (1949)

I'm not a fan of most gangster pics, but I thought this was pretty alright. Cagney overdoes the "crazy headache" episodes, though. The mother fixation and the undercover cop provide tension in a solid story, though the dogged detective is pretty square.
