Angels with Dirty Faces

Two boyhood friends, Rocky Sullivan and Jerry Connolly have taken different paths in life. After Rocky is arrested he is sent to a juvenile facility and becomes a lifelong tough guy and crimal. Jerry on the other hand goes straight and becomes a Catholic priest mistering to people in the same neighborhood when he and Rocky grew up. When Rocky is released from prison he resumes his crimal lifestyle and becomes much admired by many of the local kids. Worried that the kids will follow Rocky into the crimal world, Jerry works hard to keep them on the straight and narrow. When Rocky is convicted and sentenced to the electric chair, Jerry asks him for one last favor.
