* ''Series/TheCarolBurnettShow'' has a skit parodying this movie, sort of. It's actually a frame story, with "Miss Havana" drunkenly telling the story of her lost love Eddie to anyone she can catch at gunpoint (including the cop when they spoof the "He used to be a bigshot" scene). The entire plotline is quite different from ''The Roaring Twenties'' but it's clearly a direct parody of the movie's characters at the very least, with some of the parody versions actually named after the actors (Jean is now "Priscilla" and the George equivalent is [[Creator/HumphreyBogart Bogie]]).

* The movie figures into the climax of the 1984 gangster spoof ''Film/JohnnyDangerously'', where the villain plots to assassinate the District Attorney (also the title character's brother) at a screening of the film. He even makes a point of timing his gunshot to the moment near the end "where Cagney gets it".
