"The Time of Your Life" is a 1948 film starring James Cagney adapted from the the 1939 William Saroyan play of the same title. The movie was adapted by Nathaniel Curtis, directed by H. C. Potter, and featured William Bendix as Nick, Wayne Morris as Tom, Broderick Crawford as Krupp, and Ward Bond as McCarthy. A Cagney Production, "The Time of Your Life" was produced by Cagney's brother William and co-starred their sister Jeanne as Kitty Duval. The drama flopped miserably at the box office but is remembered as one of the best screen versions of the play. Jackie Gleason played Cagney's role in a critically acclaimed television version for "Playhouse 90" ten years later (which also featured James Barton as Kit Carson); the "Playhouse 90" production featured Jack Klugman as Nick the bartender, Dick York as Tom, and Betsy Palmer as Kitty Duval.
