Plot
Meek busboy Little Pinks is in love with an extremely selfish nightclub singer and takes care of her when she is paralyzed.
Sinekatalog’s take
Irving Reis's Damon Runyon adaptation, with Henry Fonda and Lucille Ball, is sentimental, with a strong dramatic turn by Ball.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
