    Okay read carefully. "Instead of listen-up." LOL!

    In the movie Home Alone, what movie was it that Keven Mcalester played to thwart off the bad guy's? It was some old black and white gangster-style movie where this mad-man had this tommy-gun and shot at just about everybody.
    I'd be interested to watch it as I'm gaining more interest in oldies-style movies.
    Does anybody have any idea?

    It was called "Angels With Filthy Souls". It is based on the 1938 film, "Angels With Dirty Faces" but was made for Home Alone.

    I remember being so disappointed maybe 5 years ago when I found out that "Angels With Filthy Souls" and "Angels With Filthier Souls" were just a collection of scenes filmed specifically for Home Alone. For almost 20 years I thought they were real movies, but in retrospect I suppose it makes sense that those dialogues perfectly fit Kevin McCalister's needs.

    So not a real movie at all? Damn, It looked like it could've been a good one!
    Anything like it that I should watch that is a real movie?
