00:00:00The End
00:00:30The End
00:01:00On March 27th last, 1322 displaced persons
00:01:25sailed past the Statue of Liberty
00:01:28into the safe harbor of New York.
00:01:34Rescued by the International Refugee Organization
00:01:37of the United Nations,
00:01:39their eyes filled with tears of happiness
00:01:41as they were welcomed to America.
00:01:43From the teeming shores of an unsettled world,
00:01:54they had come in search of human dignity,
00:01:56in search of freedom,
00:01:57from want,
00:01:59from fear,
00:02:00from persecution.
00:02:02At last, the hope and the dream had come true.
00:02:05They had found a home and peace.
00:02:14Forgotten was the nightmare of war.
00:02:17Erased was the torment of the concentration camp.
00:02:19A golden door had opened.
00:02:30A new life had begun.
00:02:33For all except one of them.
00:02:37For he had come so far,
00:02:39only to be locked out.
00:02:40Okay, Kuban.
00:02:59You're next.
00:03:00Let's go.
00:03:01Kuban, the stowaway.
00:03:19Sit down.
00:03:31Name?
00:03:36Peter Kuban.
00:03:37You speak English?
00:03:39Yes.
00:03:40Where did you learn?
00:03:41In school?
00:03:41No, sir.
00:03:42From other prisoners.
00:03:44In concentration camp.
00:03:46I had much time to learn.
00:03:49Your nationality.
00:03:51I have none.
00:03:52I was born in Hungary.
00:03:54But the hungry I loved
00:03:57is no more.
00:03:58Any distinguishing marks?
00:04:02Scars.
00:04:05Marks on your body
00:04:06for identification.
00:04:09No fingernails
00:04:10on second, third,
00:04:10and fourth fingers.
00:04:12What happened to your fingernails?
00:04:15They thought I knew something.
00:04:18They pulled them out with pliers.
00:04:21It's already seven years.
00:04:23Any other marks?
00:04:25I have a scar
00:04:26on the right shoulder
00:04:27from a bayonet.
00:04:28Never mind.
00:04:29Last permanent address.
00:04:32Camps.
00:04:33What camps?
00:04:34Auschwitz.
00:04:35Labor camps.
00:04:36Concentration camps.
00:04:37Disciplinary camps.
00:04:39Ten years in camps.
00:04:41How old are you?
00:04:4225.
00:04:45Family?
00:04:49The gas chamber.
00:04:521944.
00:04:52You stowed away at Trieste.
00:04:59How did you get from Chapran to Trieste?
00:05:02I walked.
00:05:03300 miles?
00:05:05I walked.
00:05:06Without passport?
00:05:07Without money?
00:05:08I have money.
00:05:09Eight dollars.
00:05:10I can pay the head tax.
00:05:13Kuban, I'm afraid
00:05:14there's nothing we can do.
00:05:16You stowed away.
00:05:16You're here illegally.
00:05:17But...
00:05:18We can't let you in.
00:05:20The law is exact.
00:05:21We have to send you back.
00:05:24Back?
00:05:28You do not understand.
00:05:30Listen, I escaped.
00:05:33If they get me back, I'll be dead.
00:05:34I have committed no crime.
00:05:38A man has a right to live,
00:05:39to have a home,
00:05:40to be free.
00:05:42We have no choice.
00:05:44Our job is to enforce the law.
00:05:46I read the law.
00:05:48It says that you must allow me to come in.
00:05:51What law is that?
00:05:52The displaced persons law.
00:05:54Statute number six.
00:05:56It was passed by your Congress.
00:05:58What about statute six?
00:05:59I tell you.
00:06:01A person bearing arms
00:06:03for the Allied cause in World War II
00:06:05has the privilege to come into America
00:06:07without a quota number.
00:06:08Before others.
00:06:09Yes, that's true.
00:06:11You can prove that you helped the Allied cause?
00:06:13Just before the end of the war,
00:06:15I escaped from Auschwitz.
00:06:18I joined the underground.
00:06:21And I found an American parachute soldier.
00:06:24His leg was broken.
00:06:25I hid him in a stable for five days.
00:06:28I stole food for him.
00:06:30When the front collapsed,
00:06:31I carried him on my back
00:06:33to an American field hospital.
00:06:35What was his name?
00:06:36The soldier.
00:06:36Tom.
00:06:37It was Tom.
00:06:38Give us his name, address, outfit.
00:06:41It was Tom.
00:06:42He was a parachute soldier.
00:06:43His name and address.
00:06:46He lives in New York.
00:06:47He lives here.
00:06:48Yes, and his name.
00:06:50He called me Pete.
00:06:51I called him Tom.
00:06:53He's a musician.
00:06:54He told me.
00:06:55He plays the...
00:06:56the clarinet.
00:06:58You need evidence, signatures, witnesses.
00:07:02If you don't even know his name,
00:07:03we cannot help you.
00:07:04But I saved him.
00:07:06He lives in New York.
00:07:07He told me.
00:07:08He used to talk to me
00:07:09about the place where he worked.
00:07:11A crowded street.
00:07:13A street called...
00:07:14Times Square.
00:07:17That's it.
00:07:18He told me that he wanted
00:07:19to go back to Times Square.
00:07:21To do you any good,
00:07:22you'll need his full name and address.
00:07:23I could find him.
00:07:25If you let me off the boat,
00:07:26I can find him.
00:07:28He lives in New York.
00:07:30He's a musician.
00:07:31New York is not a chaperone.
00:07:33Have you ever been in a big city?
00:07:35No.
00:07:37New York has 8 million people.
00:07:39100,000 Toms.
00:07:4150,000 musicians.
00:07:42But I could find him.
00:07:43I know it.
00:07:44I could find him.
00:07:45And he would prove my story.
00:07:48We can't let you off this ship.
00:07:51You do not believe me.
00:08:01Look.
00:08:02He gave me his watch.
00:08:04The watch doesn't prove anything.
00:08:07I'm sorry, Kuban.
00:08:09The law gives us no choice.
00:08:12We have to send you back.
00:08:21Stateless Peter Kuban
00:08:26arrived today
00:08:27as a stowaway
00:08:28aboard the SS Concord.
00:08:31Unable to furnish
00:08:32the necessary papers,
00:08:34he will be deported
00:08:35to Trieste tomorrow.
00:08:37Take it easy, kid.
00:08:38That story will make you famous.
00:08:41Sure.
00:08:42Millions of dames
00:08:43will read about you.
00:08:44Crying their beer over you.
00:08:46People are leaving
00:08:46right to their congressmen.
00:08:48Yes.
00:08:49And then what will happen?
00:08:50Nothing.
00:08:52Tomorrow you'll be sailing back home.
00:09:20Stay back, man.
00:09:22He's escaping.
00:09:24He's going that way.
00:09:25Get him.
00:09:29Hey, the stowaway.
00:09:30Get him off.
00:09:31Hey.
00:09:32He's making check.
00:09:33Up there.
00:09:34Get him.
00:09:40You, stop.
00:09:41Go, Chuck.
00:09:51Look at you.
00:09:52Get him.
00:09:55Stop or I'll shoot!
00:10:14Stop or I'll shoot!
00:10:24Stop, sir!
00:10:44Stop!
00:10:54Fly that way!
00:11:00Hey, give me a lift. I'm chasing the guard.
00:11:14Hey!
00:11:44Oh, my God.
00:12:14Oh, my God.
00:12:44Oh, my God.
00:12:52Oh, my God.
00:12:54Oh, my God.
00:12:58Times Square.
00:13:11Just like Tom said.
00:13:28It's the first one ever
00:13:58jump ship on us.
00:13:59Yeah, these fellas know all the tricks.
00:14:01If we don't get them back,
00:14:02it'll be my neck.
00:14:04Well, for one thing,
00:14:04we know he's hurt.
00:14:06We'll check the hospitals.
00:14:07You take that to tail, Swenson.
00:14:10You know that clarinet player
00:14:11he was telling us about?
00:14:12Yeah.
00:14:13You think he'd be crazy enough
00:14:14to try to find him?
00:14:16You believe that story?
00:14:18It sounded on the up and up to me.
00:14:21Didn't it?
00:14:21They've all got stories.
00:14:23When you hear them day after day,
00:14:25you don't know what to believe.
00:14:26But if it is true,
00:14:27then he'd be looking
00:14:27around Times Square.
00:14:30Possibility.
00:14:31We'll try it.
00:14:32Come on.
00:14:33We'll split up the area
00:14:34between 42nd Street
00:14:36and 47th,
00:14:38from 8th Avenue to 5th.
00:14:41You take this, Kylie.
00:14:42Yes, sir.
00:14:43I'll take 42nd to 47th,
00:14:46Mellinger.
00:14:47Take this section
00:14:48and to me, that one.
00:14:50Cover all night spots.
00:14:52Every place it has a band.
00:14:54He's on the level
00:14:55about that clarinet fellow.
00:14:56What happens
00:14:57if you don't get him
00:14:57back by 7?
00:14:59At your sailing time?
00:15:00Yes.
00:15:01Well, he becomes a fugitive
00:15:02and a criminal.
00:15:03After that,
00:15:04he'll never be able
00:15:04to get into this country
00:15:05at all.
00:15:06Let's get going.
00:15:07Let's get going.
00:15:37Let's get going.
00:15:42Let's get going.
00:15:56Let's get going.
00:15:57Let's get going.
00:16:29You're a clarinet player. His name is Tom.
00:16:45Tom? Are you kidding? We got an all-girl band.
00:16:53One.
00:16:55You're a clarinet player. His name is Tom.
00:16:58Clarinet player, trumpet player. Who knows their names? They play.
00:17:02Hey, hey, look, please.
00:17:04Help yourself.
00:17:06Only don't block the aisle.
00:17:28Look out.
00:19:52Hey!
00:19:53Hey!
00:19:54Hey!
00:19:55She's stealing my coat!
00:19:56Hey!
00:19:57Hey!
00:19:58Hey!
00:19:59Hey!
00:20:00She's stealing my coat!
00:20:02Hey!
00:20:03Hey!
00:20:09Hey!
00:20:10Hey!
00:20:11Hey!
00:20:12Hey!
00:20:13Hey!
00:20:14Hey!
00:20:15Hey!
00:20:16Hey!
00:20:17Hey!
00:20:18Hey!
00:20:19Hey!
00:20:20Hey!
00:20:21Hey!
00:20:22Hey!
00:20:26Hey!
00:20:27Hey!
00:20:28Hey!
00:20:29Hey!
00:20:30Hey!
00:20:31Hey!
00:20:32Hey!
00:20:33Police!
00:20:34Please!
00:20:55Get down!
00:20:57I left the coat. Let go of me.
00:20:59Keep quiet. Quiet.
00:21:01We'll get her.
00:21:05My partner's calling in.
00:21:07We'll have all the actions blocked.
00:21:11Just what are you doing?
00:21:13You want to get out, don't you?
00:21:15Of course I do.
00:21:17Then crawl. Follow me.
00:21:31Get down on your belly.
00:21:33Crawl.
00:21:34Come on.
00:21:35Come on.
00:21:57Thanks. I'll be seeing you.
00:21:59Hey.
00:22:04Look, you help me and I'm grateful.
00:22:06Let's call it quits, okay?
00:22:07You're not safe yet.
00:22:09Let me worry about me, will you?
00:22:11I wouldn't feel right.
00:22:13If you were caught.
00:22:15I'm relieving you of all obligation.
00:22:17You can clear your conscience as of now.
00:22:19What is it with you?
00:22:35Now, where do you live?
00:22:37I got a room.
00:22:38All right. We go there.
00:22:39Oui. Not just a minute.
00:22:45You mean if I don't you?
00:22:47I haven't got much choice, have I?
00:22:59Why don't you be a good Joe and go home?
00:23:01I've met all kinds.
00:23:19All with the same idea.
00:23:22But you, you got me buffaloed.
00:23:25Buffaloed?
00:23:26Don't you understand English?
00:23:28You're fast enough to take advantage of a situation.
00:23:30I had to do it.
00:23:33Had to?
00:23:34You trying to win a bet or something?
00:23:36I had to find a place to rest.
00:23:39Oh.
00:23:40That's a new approach.
00:23:42Have you some water, please?
00:23:44Over there.
00:23:51Look what you've done.
00:23:53I'm sorry.
00:23:55My landlord, you just as soon tossed me out of my ear.
00:23:57I hope she didn't...
00:23:59She didn't...
00:24:01Open up. I know you're in there.
00:24:03Where's that money you promised me?
00:24:04I'll have it for you in a day or two, Mrs. Hinkley.
00:24:05Bourgeois.
00:24:06You've been giving me that for weeks.
00:24:07I'm not having any more.
00:24:08Honest, I will.
00:24:09Either you dig up the cash right away, or when Eddie gets home, you'll put your things out on the sidewalk.
00:24:12Mrs. Hinkley, I promise you.
00:24:13No, I want you out of here anyway.
00:24:14I've seen the way you've been egging my Eddie on.
00:24:15Egg?
00:24:16I'm black and blue from fighting the big girl off.
00:24:17Now, you get your things out of here.
00:24:18I'm black and blue from fighting the big girl off.
00:24:19Now, you get your things out of here, or when Eddie gets home, he'll put them out.
00:24:20And he'll be home soon.
00:24:21Oh, wait a minute, Mrs. Hinkley.
00:24:22I...
00:24:23I...
00:24:24I...
00:24:25I...
00:24:26I...
00:24:27I...
00:24:28I...
00:24:29I...
00:24:30I...
00:24:31I...
00:24:32I...
00:24:33I...
00:24:34I...
00:24:35I...
00:24:36I...
00:24:37I...
00:24:38I...
00:24:39I...
00:24:40I...
00:24:41I...
00:24:42I...
00:24:43I...
00:24:44I...
00:24:45I...
00:24:46I...
00:24:47I...
00:24:48I...
00:24:49I think I can let you have part of it.
00:24:50So, you've been holding out.
00:24:52All right, open up and let me have it.
00:24:55Under the door.
00:25:03Seven lousy dollars.
00:25:05You owe me 30.
00:25:07I'll get you the rest.
00:25:09I got a job coming.
00:25:10You cough it up by day after tomorrow.
00:25:13That's final.
00:25:18Thanks for the loan.
00:25:21But if you've got any ideas, it's gonna entitle you to any special privileges...
00:25:24I'm sorry.
00:25:27You have enough troubles without me.
00:25:30Well...
00:25:32It was not such a good idea that I had.
00:25:36I...
00:25:37I hope you understand.
00:25:39It...
00:25:40It's nothing personal.
00:25:41I won't trouble you anymore.
00:25:46There's no use asking where to send the money.
00:25:48I don't know when I'll ever have any.
00:25:50Just...
00:25:51Don't steal any more coats.
00:25:54No.
00:25:55I'm not very good at it.
00:25:59Goodbye.
00:26:03So long.
00:26:11Alright.
00:26:13Bye-bye.
00:26:14Here's some reviews.
00:26:15Yeah.
00:26:16It's...
00:26:18Hello.
00:26:21Yeah.
00:26:22Nope.
00:26:24Okay.
00:26:25No.
00:26:30No.
00:26:32No.
00:26:34No.
00:26:36No.
00:26:37No.
00:26:38No.
00:26:39No.
00:26:40I must go, I must find Tom.
00:26:56Just a little easy.
00:26:58My ribs.
00:27:00Something must be broken.
00:27:04How'd you do that?
00:27:07When I jumped from the ship,
00:27:10what ship?
00:27:12It's here, in the paper.
00:27:30You'd better get to a doctor.
00:27:32No, he would report me.
00:27:34They would send me back.
00:27:36A broken rib could puncture something.
00:27:38You want to die?
00:27:39I don't want to die.
00:27:42But I don't want to go back.
00:27:47Lift up.
00:27:48Let's take a big cup.
00:28:09I like it.
00:28:13Come on.
00:28:19I love it, Dr.
00:28:25I love it.
00:28:26I love it.
00:28:27And I'll get I love it.
00:28:27I'm going forward to the next Frauen where I am going.
00:28:30There. That'll help for a while.
00:28:46Thank you. You're angry for making you bring me here.
00:28:57You better rest.
00:28:58I'd better go now.
00:29:00No. You stay here. You're in no condition to be running.
00:29:06And you're not so hard as you pretend.
00:29:10Tell me, is there not work for everyone here in America?
00:29:18Almost everyone.
00:29:21So how it happens that a girl like you steals a coat?
00:29:25I don't know. I was cold. I needed a coat.
00:29:33More than that. I was fed up, I guess.
00:29:39Did you ever put tips on shoelaces?
00:29:45Tip on shoelaces?
00:29:47Yeah. That's what I did for two years.
00:29:49There's a big steel machine here, see?
00:29:53And over here, a giant spool of shoelace.
00:29:57You pull it out like this, 27 inches at a time, all day.
00:30:01And then you stamp a pedal and a ton of steel bangs down, cuts the lace and rolls the tip on.
00:30:06Bang like that and again. Bang all day.
00:30:09Scared you'll smash a finger.
00:30:11But at the same time, you've got to keep your eye on the assistant foreman.
00:30:13Because every time he comes by, he pinches you.
00:30:16You do this till your brain goes numb.
00:30:18And you get 35 bucks a week.
00:30:21And then all of a sudden you have an appendix attack, an operation.
00:30:25And you're out, flat on your back.
00:30:27And you just can't get back on your feet.
00:30:28And you get fed up.
00:30:29And you want to strike back at somebody, anybody.
00:30:32And you steal a coat.
00:30:51When I get work, I will help you.
00:30:58I never met anybody like you before.
00:31:02You have a girl where you come from?
00:31:08There were no girls in the camps.
00:31:14Except behind barbed wire.
00:31:32There were no girls in the camps.
00:31:34I was not a girl.
00:31:37I was not a girl where you came from.
00:31:38I was a girl.
00:31:39I was a girl.
00:31:40I was a girl at the Rose all night.
00:31:41I was a girl in the Х.
00:31:43I was a girl in the morning.
00:31:44There was no girls there.
00:31:45There was no girls in the school.
00:31:46There were no girls in the hallit GRACE.
00:31:47Come on, let me know.
00:31:51Come on, let me know.
00:32:063.50.
00:32:09I bid 3.80.
00:32:10You'll bid them goodbye.
00:32:11Hey, Nancy, what are you doing here?
00:32:13I've got to talk to you.
00:32:14Well, in a minute, honey, as soon as I finish this hand.
00:32:16Well, right now, darling, where'll you hear?
00:32:17In a minute, I'm sitting with a 450 hand.
00:32:20Uh-oh, I pass.
00:32:22Honey, you see, you made me give my hand away.
00:32:24Oh, but, Tom, this is important.
00:32:26Here be, Bob, you play it out.
00:32:28You see, Tom, you're not even married yet.
00:32:31Must be important.
00:32:44No, Mamie.
00:32:45I tell you, that's not lipstick on my shirt.
00:32:47I had a red pencil in my pocket or something.
00:32:50No, I'm at the Musicians' Club now, and I'm waiting for a job.
00:32:54Hey, buddy.
00:32:57I mean, I tell you, it's just...
00:32:59All right, now, what is it, baby?
00:33:02Well, you know how I've been badgering Shimmy for weeks about getting you sent.
00:33:05Shimmy's arranged a spot for you with Jack T. Garden's band.
00:33:08Jack T. Garden?
00:33:09Oh, baby, baby.
00:33:12That's the kind of a break I've been waiting for since I got out of the Army.
00:33:15Well, no, hold on, darling.
00:33:16You only said if you've got the stuff.
00:33:17You're talking to me, baby.
00:33:19Have I got the stuff for having it?
00:33:20Well, honey, I know it, and you know it.
00:33:22But you've got to convince Jack.
00:33:23Convince him.
00:33:24I'll blow my brains out.
00:33:25Hey, when does he want me to come down?
00:33:26Tonight.
00:33:27Oh, right now, in fact.
00:33:28Got your clarinet with you.
00:33:29Yeah, it's in my locker.
00:33:30Good.
00:33:31Well, now get yourself cleaned up and comb that silly hair of yours.
00:33:34I want you to look pretty.
00:33:35Okay, well, look.
00:33:36Look, here's the key to my locker.
00:33:37You get the liquorice stick in my hat, and I'll get all cleaned up.
00:33:40All right?
00:33:41Tom, if Jack keeps you on, then we can do all the things we've wanted to do.
00:33:46Oh, baby, I'll make him bust open that city hall so we can get our license.
00:33:50Even if he doesn't, Tom?
00:33:51Now, we've been all through that before.
00:33:53I told you I don't want a wife that supports me.
00:33:55Oh, is that so?
00:33:57Well, what are you worried about?
00:33:58I'll get the job.
00:34:00Here's one for luck.
00:34:01And remind me to kiss Shimmy when I see him.
00:34:03He'll still want his 10%.
00:34:05I'll kiss him 10% worth.
00:34:06Oh, go make yourself pretty.
00:34:21Hi.
00:34:21What a world.
00:34:29What a lost up world this is.
00:34:32Here's a poor sucker.
00:34:34He walks 400 miles to stow away on a boat to come here.
00:34:37So what happens to him?
00:34:38What?
00:34:39So they're going to ship him back.
00:34:40That's what.
00:34:41Forgot his driver's license or something.
00:34:43So he can't come in.
00:34:45Oh, what a world.
00:34:46They should give it back to the Indians.
00:34:47And we think we got troubles.
00:34:51Take Herbie.
00:34:51You know, Fat Herbie, the trombone player.
00:34:53I'm on a job with him last week.
00:34:54All night long, he keeps knocking me a tea kettle about if he eats too much, he keeps on belching.
00:34:59You know, interferes with his rhythm.
00:35:01So I says, Herbie, if you eat too much and you keep on belching, so don't eat so much.
00:35:07Reasonable?
00:35:08Sure.
00:35:08Yeah, so he says, But I like to eat.
00:35:10It's my pleasure.
00:35:12I like to eat.
00:35:14Just like that.
00:35:15So I says, Okay, so eat.
00:35:17So belch.
00:35:19And he thinks he's got troubles.
00:35:21Here's a guy with troubles.
00:35:23Ten years he spent already in the concentration camp and they're going to send them back.
00:35:28Oh, what a world.
00:35:30Fooey.
00:35:31Fooey.
00:36:01Nancy, this fellow here in the paper, it's Peter, the one I told you about, the kid that saved my life.
00:36:20Are you sure?
00:36:21Of course I'm sure.
00:36:23Oh, what a rotten break.
00:36:26I've got to go down there, see what I can do.
00:36:29Down where?
00:36:30The immigration office.
00:36:32Tonight?
00:36:33What could you do?
00:36:34I don't know.
00:36:35There must be something.
00:36:36I ought to talk to them, maybe keep them from sending him back.
00:36:39But you're supposed to be at Jack's place right now, for heaven's sakes, Tom.
00:36:42I know, I know, but...
00:36:44Then what are we arguing about?
00:36:45He has no passport.
00:36:46He stowed away illegally.
00:36:48Well, I'm sorry for the fellow, but what can you do?
00:36:50The law says he can't come in.
00:36:52There must be some way.
00:36:53I ought to try.
00:36:55Sure, go fight, City Hall.
00:36:56Blow your big chance.
00:36:57I've chased Shimmy for weeks to get you this chance.
00:37:00You say you love me.
00:37:01You won't marry me till you get sent.
00:37:02Well, I've waited five years.
00:37:03But I just can't walk out on him.
00:37:05All right, walk out on me.
00:37:06Go blow your opportunity and go on a wild goose chase.
00:37:09You want to help him go down there tomorrow morning, but right now you're supposed to be at Jack's.
00:37:13They're waiting.
00:37:14And if you don't go, there's a dozen clarinet players waiting for that job.
00:37:17All right, Nancy.
00:37:21You're right.
00:37:22Let's go.
00:37:25Tom.
00:37:27I'm sorry about all this.
00:37:28I said you were right.
00:37:29Now let's forget it.
00:37:31Well, I'll drop in later and see how it goes.
00:37:34Okay.
00:37:36Let's go.
00:37:47This fellow, Tom, if you find him, will he stand up for you so you can stay here?
00:37:57I know he will.
00:38:00Then we'll find him.
00:38:01In the morning we'll go to the musicians' union.
00:38:03They'll have a list.
00:38:04You see, I needed somebody like you with brains.
00:38:10Some brains.
00:38:12Look at me.
00:38:13Look at the way I live.
00:38:17This crummy room.
00:38:20Crummy?
00:38:21Why crummy?
00:38:24It's a very good room.
00:38:27And all by yourself.
00:38:32How many nights I've slept on the ground.
00:38:36All crowded in with 30, 40 people.
00:38:40If I had a room like this for myself, I would feel rich.
00:38:47We look at things differently, I guess.
00:38:50Eh.
00:38:51What I had to do just to stay alive.
00:38:56Tonight, I saw food in a window.
00:39:00Where I come from, men would kill each other for such food.
00:39:05You know?
00:39:06I never had an orange since I was a child.
00:39:12They won't send you back, Peter.
00:39:15We'll manage something.
00:39:17Together.
00:39:18Maggie.
00:39:19Hey, Maggie.
00:39:21It's Eddie.
00:39:21The landlady's son.
00:39:22I know you're in there.
00:39:24Ma told me.
00:39:25Go away, Eddie.
00:39:26Let a girl sleep.
00:39:28I'll just stay a minute.
00:39:30I've been fighting him off for weeks.
00:39:32I'm in bed, Eddie.
00:39:33See me in the morning.
00:39:35Oh, that's no way.
00:39:36I got a present for you.
00:39:38Thanks.
00:39:38In the morning.
00:39:40I'm coming in.
00:39:41I got a passkey.
00:39:43Better talk with him.
00:39:44Let me get something on, Eddie.
00:39:47I'm coming in.
00:39:48I just got in off my run.
00:39:56I figured we'd have a little drink together.
00:39:58I'll leave you the bottle.
00:40:00I'm dead for sleep, Eddie.
00:40:02Leave the bottle, and I'll invite you up tomorrow.
00:40:05You're up now.
00:40:09Where's your southern hospitality?
00:40:18Ain't you going to get me a glass?
00:40:28I don't keep my glasses in the clothes closet, Eddie.
00:40:31Yeah.
00:40:32Sometimes I'm awful dumb.
00:40:35It was real friendly of you to think of me, Eddie.
00:40:38I'm a real friendly guy.
00:40:40Yeah.
00:40:41I told you I liked you.
00:40:48You know, I've had a yin for you ever since you first moved in.
00:40:55I guess you know that.
00:40:56Yeah.
00:40:57You told me.
00:41:00But why don't you be nice, and let me get some sleep.
00:41:02And maybe tomorrow.
00:41:04Why don't you be nice?
00:41:04Please, Eddie.
00:41:05What's the matter?
00:41:06Am I poisoning something?
00:41:07Of course not.
00:41:08It's just that...
00:41:08The old lady said you gave her some dough.
00:41:11I could fix things up with the old witch.
00:41:12Please, Eddie.
00:41:13Oh, come on, kid.
00:41:14You and me could have lots of laughs.
00:41:15I'm making real dough these days.
00:41:17Cut it out, Eddie, or I'll yell for your mother.
00:41:18Oh, don't pull that hi-hat stuff on me.
00:41:22Oh, a little tiger, eh?
00:41:24I like tigers.
00:41:26Let go of her.
00:41:30So, my old lady was right.
00:41:32You did have a guy up here.
00:41:34I thought I could bring him out.
00:41:36I'm pretty smart.
00:41:37Oh, Eddie, why don't you be nice as I...
00:41:39Get up, you little tramp.
00:41:48Hey, what have you been up to?
00:42:11Eddie!
00:42:17Eddie!
00:42:22What are they doing to you?
00:42:24And look at this room.
00:42:28Hey.
00:42:29Hey.
00:42:31That's him.
00:42:32That's the guy that just bopped you.
00:42:34Get up, you dumb oxen.
00:42:38Phone the cops.
00:42:40Cops?
00:42:41Yeah.
00:42:42I'm going to go.
00:42:42I'm going to go.
00:42:42I'm going to go.
00:42:45Warning for questioning on charge of assault with intent to kill.
00:42:48Peter Kuban, age 25, 6 feet 2, 170 pounds, black hair, dark eyes.
00:42:55Last seen with a girl named Maggie Summers.
00:42:575 feet 6, green eyes, blonde.
00:43:00Kuban also was warned by immigration department for illegal entry.
00:43:03This man is dangerous.
00:43:05Approach with caution.
00:43:07May be armed.
00:43:09That complicates things.
00:43:12I'd better contact the police.
00:43:33All right.
00:43:40I'm going to go.
00:43:46I'm going to go.
00:43:58You're right.
00:44:29There's an emergency hospital near here.
00:44:43They would report to the police.
00:44:45You don't even know how bad you're hurt.
00:44:47How long do you think you can walk around with those busted ribs?
00:44:50Till I find Tom.
00:44:59You can't take much more.
00:45:05You've got to get off the streets.
00:45:07But where?
00:45:09You got any money?
00:45:11No.
00:45:13Seven dollars was every cent you had.
00:45:15You wait here.
00:45:29I'll be right back.
00:45:30Make them pay, Louie.
00:45:53Make them pay.
00:45:54Let's go.
00:46:24Come on.
00:46:27Lift it up.
00:46:28I've seen some dough roll over here.
00:46:31What are you talking about?
00:46:32The money.
00:46:33The geetus.
00:46:34The scratch.
00:46:35Pick it up.
00:46:35Come on.
00:46:37Quit your clowning.
00:46:40Hit the road.
00:46:41Get off our money.
00:46:43Soccer, Louie.
00:46:44Go on.
00:46:44Soccer, Louie.
00:46:45You do?
00:46:45And I yell for the cops.
00:46:46I ought to belt you.
00:46:48You're going to leave or am I going to yell?
00:46:50You got a license to block this sidewalk?
00:46:52Gee, Louie.
00:46:52We don't want to get pinched.
00:46:53Come on.
00:46:54Let her have the lousy dough.
00:46:55Come on.
00:46:56Crook.
00:46:57Cradle robber.
00:46:58I hope you get hit with a garbage truck.
00:47:00You stole from those children.
00:47:21Look, you want to stay alive or don't you?
00:47:28Maggie, Maggie.
00:47:31These two dimes will give you a chance to rest until morning.
00:47:34Then we'll go to the union and find your Tom.
00:47:38Two dimes?
00:47:39For a hotel room?
00:47:42Two dimes you can get in the subway and ride all night.
00:47:45Many people sleep in the subway?
00:47:51Not many.
00:47:52Only a few busted suckers like us.
00:47:55Six-chairs.
00:48:00Six-chairs.
00:48:00Four-four-one.
00:48:03Four-four-one.
00:48:04This man is wanted on charge of assault and battery.
00:48:11If you see him, call your nearest police precinct station.
00:48:16His name is Peter Kuban.
00:48:20He's a man who is in charge of assault and battery.
00:48:23If you see him, call your nearest police precinct station.
00:48:27His name is Peter Kuban.
00:48:32He's six feet two inches tall, speaks with an accent.
00:48:37Black hair, brown eyes.
00:48:39If you see him, call your nearest police precinct station.
00:49:02That T-guard, he sure can't play that horn, can he?
00:49:09He's really got it.
00:49:11He's really got it.
00:49:23He's really got it.
00:49:30He's really got it.
00:49:33He's really got it.
00:49:35He's a mayor.
00:49:36That's a good lady.
00:49:37I love you, Peter Kuban.
00:49:39He's really got it.
00:49:41I love you.
00:49:42I love you, Peter Kuban.
00:49:44I love you, Peter Kuban.
00:49:46Tom, what are you doing?
00:50:05I can't sit there any longer.
00:50:08If there's some way I can help that guy, I'm going to find out about it.
00:50:11But you might throw this job and go down there and nothing.
00:50:16When it was his life or mine, he didn't ask any questions.
00:50:18He just did what he had to do.
00:50:20That's why I'm alive.
00:50:22Tom!
00:50:36That's him. Over there.
00:50:41Come on.
00:51:01Are you going to kill the boat? Wait!
00:51:11Come on.
00:51:13Come on.
00:51:15Come on.
00:51:17Come on.
00:51:35And you want us to believe you let Kuban come up to your room only because he was tired?
00:51:38I don't care what you believe.
00:51:39You want to make a federal case, you go ahead.
00:51:45We just want the facts.
00:51:47His side was caved in.
00:51:48He was bleeding.
00:51:49I tried to help him.
00:51:50Is that a crime?
00:51:52No.
00:51:54You didn't know he was a fugitive?
00:51:56You think that would have made any difference?
00:51:58He's the first guy I met in my life treating me decent.
00:52:03Why do you keep hounding him?
00:52:05We've got an assault charge against him.
00:52:08But if you're telling the truth, maybe he can beat the Rev.
00:52:11He won't get him.
00:52:12He'll run and hide and run and hide until he drops.
00:52:16He said he'd die before they'd send him back.
00:52:18He means it.
00:52:19He means it.
00:52:20She's right, Lieutenant.
00:52:22When he saved my life in Germany, we hid in a haystack.
00:52:25A Nazi soldier jabbed his bayonet through the hay right into Peter's shoulder.
00:52:30He didn't make a sound.
00:52:32He knew that any noise would give us away.
00:52:35Bayonet scar on right shoulder.
00:52:37What was that?
00:52:39Oh, I was just remembering something he told us.
00:52:42Well, I'm convinced his story's true.
00:52:45Now, if we can find him before 7, and you back him up as his sponsor, he has a chance.
00:52:51Why before 7?
00:52:53Well, that's when the ship he jumped leaves port.
00:52:55And if he's not in custody by then, he's a fugitive from justice.
00:52:59And he'll face a jail term and deportation.
00:53:02That's the law?
00:53:04That's the law.
00:53:06We've got to bind him.
00:53:08Will you put out another bulletin to all police cars, Lieutenant?
00:53:11Right away.
00:53:12It's 3.30 now. You two had better come with me.

00:57:08I'm going to get the new cat.
00:57:43So long, Bill. See you tomorrow.
00:58:03Nudnik? That's a horse? That's a dog.
00:58:07Hey, Monroe!
00:58:09Okay, Tanya, right with you.
00:58:13Big day, Tanya?
00:58:15You kidding? I'm beat. Seven ways to Dixie.
00:58:43On the other side of the hill...
00:58:44Monroe, before you take me home, I want you should take me to the 54th Street Police Station.
00:59:10Just do as I say. Take me to the 54th Street Police Station.
00:59:40Watch this guy. See that he don't get away. I'll just be in the station for a minute.
01:00:11Tanya, you know I'm a sensitive type personality.
01:00:15What cooks with the sleeper hay? Or tell me it's none of my business.
01:00:18So I'll tell you. It's none of your business.
01:00:31Relax, fellow. Just relax.
01:00:40Oh, this is it. Oh, come on. It's okay.
01:00:59Not very fancy, is it?
01:01:01That's nice. It's all right. It's very nice.
01:01:05Hmm. I smell something.
01:01:10Oh, goulash. My mother always has something cooking no matter what time I get home.
01:01:16Mmm. You'll like this.
01:01:19Hey. You're in bad shape. You better sit down.
01:01:22No. Better you should lay down until I get everything ready.
01:01:25Later you can tell me the whole story.
01:01:28Well, don't be bashful. We're just hunkies like you.
01:01:31They call me Tanya. But you know what's my real name?
01:01:34Bella Sequoia. That's a Lulu, ain't it?
01:01:38Now, come on.
01:01:40Come on.
01:01:45Down and take off your coat.
01:01:56Don't worry about them. Nothing bothers them. They sleep like rocks.
01:02:00They sleep like rocks.
01:02:08Cute brats, ain't they?
01:02:10Beautiful.
01:02:11Look, just like my husband.
01:02:13And no good tramp.
01:02:15Married me for a meal ticket.
01:02:16I kicked him out a couple of years ago.
01:02:19Now I'll wake you when everything's ready.
01:02:23Just don't worry. Relax, fella.
01:02:25Say, you look like you could stand something in your belly.
01:02:28But I must tell you, the immigration officers are looking for me.
01:02:31Well, let them look. I know about it.
01:02:34Why do you help me?
01:02:36Why?
01:02:38I don't know.
01:02:40Maybe because I'm just a big-hearted slob.
01:02:43Maybe because you, you're a good-looking Hungarian.
01:02:45I've got a soft spot in my heart for Hungarians.
01:02:49Especially good-looking ones.
01:02:51Bella, what's with this man?
01:02:57A Hungarian boy in big trouble.
01:02:59Boy, one, one.
01:03:02Me, oh boy.
01:03:04Old wasted one.
01:03:06Oh, here, Mama. Read it for yourself.
01:03:07Okay.
01:03:18I don't know. Maybe tomorrow we'll see a lawyer.
01:03:21Right now he needs rest and food.
01:03:23Food we can give.
01:03:27Bella.
01:03:28Help. Cut some bread.
01:03:31Oh, Mom pooped.
01:03:35Dancing, they call it.
01:03:37What a way to make a buck.
01:03:39You know who I ought to marry?
01:03:41A chiropractor.
01:03:55Bella.
01:03:56Hmm?
01:03:57This young man.
01:03:59Maybe he did something bad.
01:04:01A crime.
01:04:03You leave him here in with the babies.
01:04:06Oh, Mom, not that dumb.
01:04:08I stopped off at the police station and checked.
01:04:10He didn't do nothing.
01:04:12Just jumped off a boat.
01:04:13Why don't you get in this country and they won't let him.
01:04:15That's all.
01:04:17You are a good girl, Bella.
01:04:20Could you bring him home?
01:04:22Now go and bring him in.
01:04:24Everything is ready.
01:04:26Okay.
01:04:27Uh-oh.
01:04:29Freddy.
01:04:30He ain't gonna like it.
01:04:32Never mind.
01:04:34Freddy's my son.
01:04:35He ain't so bad as you always say.
01:04:38Yeah.
01:04:40Hiya, Mom.
01:04:41What's cooking?
01:04:42Hello, Freddy.
01:04:44What's with you, Tanya?
01:04:46Why the fish eye?
01:04:47Nothing.
01:04:48You want I should jump up and kiss you?
01:04:49Why not?
01:04:50You ought to be proud of your brother tonight.
01:04:52How much do you think I raked in?
01:04:56How much?
01:04:58A million dollars.
01:05:01Go ahead, laugh.
01:05:02Someday I'll do it, kid.
01:05:03I knew.
01:05:09Fifty fish, Ma.
01:05:10And it was easier shooting herring in a bathtub.
01:05:13Ha!
01:05:15Two suckers from out of town.
01:05:17I ran into him in Nicky's bar, you see?
01:05:19And before he could say hocus pocus, upstairs to Randy's layout.
01:05:23They dropped more than a grand.
01:05:25This is my cut.
01:05:27And for this you had to go two years to Peter Stuyvesant's High School, huh?
01:05:31To learn the odds, the percentages.
01:05:34Huh, sister?
01:05:35Huh?
01:05:36Ha!
01:05:39Hey, you want to eat?
01:05:40Get your own plate.
01:05:42But who's it for?
01:05:44You tell her, Ma.
01:05:46Freddy, Bella...
01:05:49Ma, Ma, will you talk English?
01:05:50You know I don't go for this hunky jabber.
01:05:54There is a young Hungarian fellow who is in trouble.
01:05:58Bella brought him home.
01:06:01He is...
01:06:03Here, my educated son.
01:06:06Read.
01:06:07Read.
01:06:14You're kidding.
01:06:15Nobody's kidding.
01:06:17He's in there resting.
01:06:19I'm gonna wake him up to eat.
01:06:20Now try to act like somebody else.
01:06:22Be nice.
01:06:24Are you nuts?
01:06:26Are you both nuts?
01:06:27Nobody's nuts in such a big trap.
01:06:29You don't know what you're doing.
01:06:30The federal cops are after them.
01:06:31The local guys, too.
01:06:32So what?
01:06:33So we don't want them snooping around here, that's what.
01:06:34Speak for yourself.
01:06:35Ma and me, we ain't been breaking no laws.
01:06:36Yeah, you think they're gonna kiss you for hiding this creep?
01:06:38Look, you get him up and out of here.
01:06:39I'll do it right now.
01:06:40Listen, I'm paying the rent around here, not you, my sweet little brother.
01:06:43I'm just getting started.
01:06:44Mom, you tell her.
01:06:45I don't want no cops investigating.
01:06:46You get rid of that guy.
01:06:47If you keep your mouth shut, nobody'll know he's here.
01:06:48Yeah?
01:06:49What about the kids?
01:06:50I suppose you'll tape their mouths up so the neighbors won't know anything about it, huh?
01:06:52Damn you, Freddy!
01:06:53I'll knock your blot off!
01:06:54Shut up!
01:06:55Ma, you got more sense than this.
01:06:56What business we got with this guy anyway?
01:06:58They got to the United Nations for things like this, ain't they?
01:07:00Why don't he go to the UN?
01:07:01Didn't the UN help you bring over your cousin Frank?
01:07:03All right.
01:07:04Tomorrow we'll take him to the UN building and find out.
01:07:07Right now he's sick and he needs rest, and he's staying here.
01:07:09Over my dead body.
01:07:10I'll take care of him right now.
01:07:12Ma, you should have drowned him when he was a baby.
01:07:14Let go.
01:07:15If you think you can stop me, you're crazy.
01:07:17I'm going to bounce this bum out of here right now.
01:07:19I ain't taking no rap for a lousy foreigner.
01:07:27Don't forget, your dead father was a lousy foreigner.
01:07:34Go on, bring him in.
01:07:37And I don't want to hear one more word.
01:08:07You're hiding in a glass of wine.
01:08:13Good night.
01:08:14My dear father, let's go.
01:08:18I'm sorry, I can't hear you.
01:08:20My son.
01:08:22I've got orphanage in my house.
01:08:23We just moved into her.
01:08:24I won't go.
01:08:25I'm sorry.
01:08:26I'm sorry.
01:08:27I'm sorry, little girl.
01:08:28Can you go?
01:08:30I don't want to know you.
01:08:31I don't want to know me.
01:08:32Let's go.
01:08:33Any mother, please?
01:08:34Hey, man.
01:09:05The U.N., the U.N.
01:09:17What's that?
01:09:18The U.N. building.
01:09:19Oh, you mean the United Nations building?
01:09:21Yes.
01:09:22That's way down 41st Street.
01:09:24It's a big, tall building with a glass wall.
01:09:27You better take a cab.
01:09:35Oh, you better take a cab.
01:10:05It's 6 o'clock.
01:10:15All cars, 15th Precinct.
01:10:30Kuban seen on First Avenue near 44th going south.
01:10:36All cars, 15th Precinct.
01:10:46Thanks, Lieutenant.
01:10:48We'll go right over.
01:10:49The woman spotted him.
01:10:53Waitress on her way to work.
01:10:55Just phoned the police.
01:10:56Said she recognized this man from the television last night.
01:10:59Where'd you see him?
01:10:59First Avenue near 44th going south.
01:11:03They're covering that section.
01:11:04What?
01:11:17Think of it.
01:13:19There he is.
01:13:21Stop, Kuban!
01:13:42Stop!
01:13:43We're after that man.
01:14:01He's an escape-departee.
01:14:02He's an escape-departee.
01:14:04He's an escape-departee.
01:14:07He's an escape-departee.
01:14:09He's an escape-departee.
01:14:11Ah, ah, ah, ah.
01:14:41Somebody! Somebody listen!
01:14:54You, you come here to bring peace to the world, but what is the world?
01:15:03As long as there is one man who can't walk free where he wants,
01:15:08as long as there is one displaced person without home,
01:15:15there won't be peace, because to each man is the world.
01:15:21Nobody listens.
01:15:33You, you, you, you, you, you...
01:15:40Peter!
01:15:55Peter! Stop running! Wait!
01:16:10Up! Take me up!
01:16:1937th floor.
01:16:25The Displicit Persons Commission. This floor.
01:16:32Where'd he go?
01:16:34Down there.
01:16:40Who'd he go?
01:16:41Down there.
01:17:00No!
01:17:07Let's go.
01:17:37Kuban.
01:17:59Pete, don't jump. It's me, Tom. It's me.
01:18:07You're all right, Peter. You're all right.
01:18:15Meg. Tom.
01:18:20You found me.
01:18:21I was looking for you, and you found me.
01:18:32You're not going back, Pete. I'll back you up.
01:18:36You're going to stay here.
01:18:37I'll back you up.
01:19:07You're going to stay here.
01:19:37You're going to stay here.
