The Irish in Us is a 1935 American comedy film directed by Lloyd Bacon and starring James Cagney, Pat O'Brien, and Olivia de Havilland.

[2] Written by Earl Baldwin based on a story by Frank Orsatti, the film is about an Irish family consisting of a mother and three sons: a cop, a fireman, and a boxing promoter.

When Lucille meets charismatic Danny, she promptly falls for him- which complicates matters, to say the least.

When his fighter Hammerschlog (Allen Jenkins) gets cold feet just before a packed house charity boxing match, Danny has no choice but to step into the ring himself.

Danny wins a bruising multi-round battle, and the publicity from the fight would seem to assure his future success as a promoter.
