Angels with Dirty Faces
The film premiered on November 26, 1938, at the Majestic Theater in Reno, Nevada. "Angels with Dirty Faces" grossed $1.7 million from the worldwide box office, and is said to have been a financial success. Analysts claim that if it weren't for "Angels with Dirty Faces" and two other films directed by Curtiz that year ("The Adventures of Robin Hood" and "Four Daughters"), Warner Bros. would have lost a considerable amount of money, resulting in negative turnover for the company's 1938 fiscal year.
