About this episode
Whether he was singing and dancing, breaking the law, or wielding a grapefruit, James Cagney never failed to deliver energetic, compelling performances on the big screen. The Oscar-winner gave audiences a series of memorable roles that are still admired – and imitated – today. For his first appearance on Suspense , Cagney returned to the world of gangster drama in an hour-long radio adaptation of James M. Cain's "Love's Lovely Counterfeit" (originally aired on CBS on January 17, 1948).
