The Big Street

Runyon's Times Square world of con men and hustlers populate the background in this tragi-comic romance, produced by Runyon himself. Unusual roles for Fonda and Ball as an innocent busboy named Little Pinks and Gloria, a glamorous nightclub singer. Hard-as-nails and dollar-wise, Gloria spurns the smitten busboy, but when an accident confines her to a wheelchair, Gloria is forced to turn to Little Pinks for help. (Verleiher-Text)
