THE GLASS WALL – 1953 – COLORIZED – VITTORIO GASSMAN – RARE DVD
Peter, a WW II ‘displaced person’ about to be deported, jumps ship in New York harbor in an effort to find an ex-G.I. named Tom whom he helped during the war and can prove Peter’s right to legal entry in the United States. It is a race against time for if he can’t find Tom within 24 hours and prove his case, he will be branded a fugitive and will be permanently disqualified for U.S. citizenship. His quest leads him to befriending Maggie, a down-on-her-luck factory worker whom he rejuvenates through his good faith, a visit to a jazz club where Shorty Rogers and his band and trombonist Jack Teagarden are playing, and an interlude with a good-hearted burlesque dancer, Tanya Zakoyla, takes him to her mother’s home for food and rest
