Broadway Bill
1934 · Movie · 104 min. · United States
This comedy-drama was directed, and then -- over twenty years later -- remade, by Frank Capra. Dan Brooks cares more about his thoroughbred Broadway Bill than for his wife Margaret or his job at father-in-law J. L. Higgins's business. When the beloved horse's fate is in jeopardy, Dan leaves his dead-end life and Margaret behind for the uncertain destinies of the race track. There, he and Broadway Bill find out what they're made of, and J. L. Higgins's unwed daughter, Alice, who secretly loves Dan, makes a surprise appearance...
