Feb 03, 2019Bob Hope and Lucille Ball headline this Damon Runyon tale of personal redemption that has an incorrigible boorish street slime caring for someone else, in this case, a little orphan girl (awww). Although obvious as all get out, and predictable, the Runyon-isms and star wattage manage to power on through to the conclusion. Not bad.kevin w Super Reviewer
