Boys Town

"No boy is bad, if given a chance!"

At Boys Town, Father Flanagan rejects the idea of juvenile detention, instead leading a community that helps wayward boys reform themselves. His system faces a serious challenge in Whitey Marsh, an impulsive petty thief and pool shark whose older brother is imprisoned for murder. Whitey's violent tendencies may prove too much for Flanagan's tough-love method.
