00:07Boys Town is real.
00:09It is a drama greater than the imagination of Hollywood's best storytellers.
00:144,000 boys have passed through this city of little men.
00:18And now the drama, the laughter, the heartache and the triumph of all these boys is crystallized
00:24in the story of one young renegade who came from the back streets into conflict with the
00:30one man who could save him.
00:48Is that what this is all about?
00:49You're going to take my life because I owe the state something?
00:52Where was the state when a lonely, starving kid cried himself to sleep in a flophouse
00:56with a bunch of drunks, tramps and hobos?
00:59Is that when this death started?
01:01The only pals I had a chance at were the kids in the alley.
01:19There.
01:20That's better.
01:23I'm Father Flanagan.
01:24I saw your brother Joe just a little while ago.
01:26We had a long talk about you, Whitey.
01:28Joe wants you to come to Boys Town with me.
01:31If you think you're going to make a plow jockey out of me, you've got another thing coming.
01:34Now look, Whitey, in a pinch I can be tougher than you are and I guess maybe this is the
01:37pinch.
01:38You're coming with me to Boys Town because that's the way your brother wants it.
01:49You're going to Whitey?
01:50Sure, I'm blowing the plant.
01:51Go on back, will you, Pee-wee, where you belong.
01:54That's a good kid.
01:54On your way.
02:01Pee-wee!
02:03Pee-wee!
02:08I'll scare you, Father.
02:15Joe, Joe Marsh.
02:17Joe, it's me, Whitey.
02:22Whitey's a bookstabber.
02:25Whitey's a bookstabber.
02:28Whitey's a bookstabber.
02:32Let's go.
02:39Don't move.
02:43They're away there.
02:45We're coming through, Father.
02:54Once in a generation comes a picture with the heartwarming sympathy,
02:57the understanding of Boys Town.
03:00Such pictures were David Copperfield and Captains Courageous.
