Cagney's career began winding down, and he made only one film in 1960, the critically acclaimed The Gallant Hours, in which he played Admiral William F. " Bull " Halsey.
The film, although set during the Guadalcanal Campaign in the Pacific Theater during World War II, was not a war film, but instead focused on the impact of command.
Cagney Productions, which shared the production credit with Robert Montgomery's company, made a brief return, though in name only.
The film was a success, and The New York Times Bosley Crowther singled its star out for praise: " It is Mr. Cagney's performance, controlled to the last detail, that gives life and strong, heroic stature to the principal figure in the film.
There is no braggadocio in it, no straining for bold or sharp effects.
It is one of the quietest, most reflective, subtlest jobs that Mr. Cagney has ever done.
