The Glass Wall - 1953 - 6/10

Stowaway Peter escapes Immigration, and although badly wounded, heads into Times Square.
There he is befriended by Maggie, another persona non gratis.
If caught and deported, Peter returns to Communistic Hungary and certain death.
Noir has docu-drama feel, and is a time-capsule for looking at the marquees.
Also to catch a session with Jack Teagarden and Shorty Rogers.
Gloria Grahame gives a luminous, raw performance.
