The Street of Forgotten Men (1925)

Directed by Herbert Brenon

Overview

Easy-Money Charley, the best fake crippled beggar in New York, loses his beloved dog and adopts a dying prostitute’s daughter to fill the empty place in his heart. But his fellow crooks and dissemblers mock him for sentimentality, and he disowns the child in order to bring her up secretly in the safety of a distant suburb. He brings her up as a young lady in ignorance of her true history or of his; but when he discovers that her affections have taken an unexpected slant, it brings about an end to their tranquil life, a crisis of conscience, and an opportunity for the sinister ‘White-Eye’ to take a hand…
