This MGM short film, part of the John Nesbitt’s Passing Parade series, looks at the Bowery district in New York City. The Bowery is full of bars, cheap restaurants and pawn shops. It’s mid-1941 and the film follows a man who has just arrived in the area. Like many others in the Bowery he’s unemployed and has no place to stay. The man takes refuge in a church and finds that he can get a hot meal, clean clothes and a bed for the night. They also help him find work letting go back “uptown”. |
