| User ReviewWayne OCharming little film that gives a glimpse into what the world of Newspapers was like back when a girl getting lost in the sewers was the "Story of the Year." Like most older films it can be a bit melodramatic and heavy on the self-righteous monologues. Still, it has some fairly amusing lines and a story that is interesting for anyone who cares about the subject matter. |
