The Crowd Roars is a 1932 American pre-Code drama film directed by Howard Hawks starring James Cagney and featuring Joan Blondell, Ann Dvorak, Eric Linden, Guy Kibbee, and Frank McHugh.

The power of love eventually triumphs, and Joe's career and his relationships with Eddie and Lee are rehabilitated.

Blondell and Dvorak initially were cast in each other's roles but swapped after a few days of shooting.

Hawks used real race car drivers in the film, including the 1930 Indianapolis 500 winner, Billy Arnold.
