John Garfield

John Garfield is Johnny, a tough NYC boxer who becomes champ. He attends a drunken party where a reporter is murdered. The killer himself dies in a flaming auto wreck, but not before he successfully shifts the blame to Johnny. He flees the city & hides out at a boy's camp out west, populated by The Dead End Kids. All seems ok until a detective (Claude Rains) who was on the murder case, happens by.

Working-class dreamers Jonah and Olaf fish the Brooklyn waters and ponder their glorious plan: buy a big boat and head for sunny Cuba. Then an amoral gangster puts the squeeze on the few bucks they've saved and puts the moves on Jonah's daughter, a restless good girl who'd just as soon be bad. And the two friends, the two gentle souls, begin a new plan: murder.
