Synopsis:
Slum boys are set straight by their tough neighbourhood priest and led astray by a gangster they hero-worship.

Classic Warners social conscience picture, setting the attractions of crime and the deprived circumstances from which it springs against a story which contrives to redeem its antihero in no one's eyes but the priest's (and the audience's).
