Deceit. Theft. Lawlessness. They can land you in the pen. Or they can land you a job in the legit world. James Cagney plays a con fresh out of Sing Sing and putting his criminal skills to work as a sneaky, snaky tabloid photo in the slam-bang Picture Snatcher. Cagney – spontaneous, freewheeling and roughing up guys and dolls alike – brings a million volts of starpower to this pre-Hays Code romp. The film draws from a jolting real-life incident: the secret snapping and subsequent publication of a forbidden photograph showing the execution of a convicted murderess. Every picture tells a story. The story here is the lengths one man will go to get that picture.

Picture Snatcher Film Synopsis

An ex-con uses his street smarts to become a successful photojournalist.

Français
Un truand qui a passé plusieurs années en prison décide à sa sortie de reprendre le droit chemin. Il se présente à une place de journaliste, mais ne sachant pas écrire il n'est pas retenu. Tout s’arrangera lorsqu'il ramènera la photo d'un forcené.

Nederlands
Gangster en ex-gedetineerde Danny Kean (Cagney) ambieert een carrière als fotograaf voor de sensatiepers. Hij knoopt een relatie aan met de dochter van een politieagent en tracht via haar een foto te krijgen van een executie op de elektrische stoel.

Pусский
Отсидев срок, гангстер Дэнни Кин решает порвать с криминальным миром и заняться своим истинным призванием - журналистикой. Применение своей неуемной энергии, пробивной дерзости, смекалке и расплывчатым моральным нормам он находит в профессии "охотника за фотографиями" в одном низкопробном таблоиде (иначе говоря, папарацци, ещё задолго до возникновения самого термина). Там он быстро делает карьеру, добывая в опасных условиях провокационные фото, которых жаждет публика. Проблемы возникают, когда он обманным путем проникает в блок смертников тюрьмы Синг-Синг и делает там снимок женщины-убийцы на электрическом стуле. Ведь полицейский чин, понесший ответственность за это происшествие, является отцом любимой девушки Дэнни, да к тому же имеет с ним давние счеты ещё со времен его преступной деятельности.

Español
El ex-convicto Danny Kean decide alejarse de su anterior vida de gánster y se convierte en el fotógrafo de un periódico. Pero se enamora de Patricia, la hija del policía que lo arrestó...
