Synopsis
Out of the frying pan into the inferno for Frankie, Squirt, Goofy, Spike and the rest of their pals. They've been grabbed off slum streets and sent to reform school. There, they'll be changed. Brutally changed into hardened criminals unless a compassionate defender stands up for them. One year after his corrosive influence on slum kids as Baby Face Martin in Dead End, Humphrey Bogart portrays a champion of wayward boys in this social-conscience movie. Playing the boys: Dead End's Leo Gorcey, Huntz Hall, Billy Halop and more, beginning their memorable string of Warner Bros. Dead End Kids films that includes Angels with Dirty Faces and the Crime School remake Hell's Kitchen.
