    Wow! I always watch old black and white movies as they have no blasphemies. I was watching this and thinking to myself - If this guy makes one more bad decision I’m not watching it anymore - when suddenly I couldn’t believe my eyes - his wife sees a billboard advertising a Billy Graham Crusade. She begs him to take her, and he goes along with her (very similar to Louis Zamperini in Unbroken). The Billy Graham sermon was so good. Billy at his best! Praise God that they weren’t ashamed of the Gospel in 1955 when made this movie!

    Once a guy I was interested in told me he was an on call paw bearer for his uncle's funeral parlor, when too few show up. I later found out he was connected to drugs somehow.
    I wonder if he was a hitman. He had a beeper too at a time where guys involved in drugs carried them just like doctors and CEOs. Think about it, some hit men have been called "undertakers."
    Glad I didn't get mixed up with him and I never found out the truth about his living.

      Yes I did some research on this and was just blown away . The guy he did work for was big time gangster in California Mikey Cohen . And was told by FBI that if he would have gone to St. Louis he would have been killed. He son had wrote a book on his father (my father was a gangster). The footage of billy graham was actual footage that he attended that service .

God is FAR more reasonable than any man, He Understands, He will accept Your confession.

    The Billy Graham segment towards the end of this movie was unhelpful and unscriptural, in that it perverted the true gospel of faith alone in the risen Christ, and not a works based (turn from sin gospel!) God saves wicked sinners not by asking Christ into their hearts, but by believing in His death, burial and resurrection. It's a free gift! Receive it today! Amen and amen!

      I'm sorry for your pain. :( Jesus knows what pain is. Besides the incredible physical suffering in his last day, he was rejected by almost everyone who should have stepped in to help him. And then he was even rejected by his Father in Heaven. That's when Jesus finally complained: "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" (The Father had to do that because the sins of the world--your sins and mine--were laid upon Jesus at that moment on the cross.) Jesus was rejected so that you could be accepted. He suffered so that you could be healed. He died so that you could live.

    Plastic movie at best...full of stereotypes, poor acting and redemption rolled into a corn dog.

      Kate Elliott - True, but entertaining. Back then, moralizing was a thing. Hollywood wanted to portray Americans as people who sometimes had a conscious - at least small town American's, not New Yorkers, you know city slickers, though. She sure had a pretty baby.

      The United States needs more moralizing.

      Umm, it's set in LA, not exactly a small town. Oddly enough, the real life gangster, a New Yorker, also eventually met Graham through Vaus.

    Too preachy. We should have been warned about the bs content.

      @Ben Frank They should have said at the beginning, "This is an inspirational movie." Then I would have been sure to skip it.

    I saw this movie on TV in 1960 when I was 9 years old. Now at 68, God's message is still the same. Un less a man is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. Repent. Confess. Believe. Receive. Thank you, Jesus, for dieting on the cross for my sins.
