Um poderoso filme sobre um impiedoso jornalista e um assessor de imprensa inescrupuloso que vão fazer de tudo para alcançar o sucesso, esta "fascinante e irresistível história" de uma "rigorosa direção e diálogos afiados".Abrilhantada pelas vívidas performances de Curtis e Lancaster essa exposição dos podres da corrupção das metrópoles é um eterno clássico que machuca fundo e envia uma mensagem quase arrepiante.É tarde da noite nas neblinosas ruas de Nova York, repleta de neons acesos na Times Square e com o nervosismo fervoroso característico da ciade. Mas o assessor de imprensa Sidney Falco (Tony Curtis) está desatento para o alvoroço dos vendedores de rua, garotas de programa e golpistas ao seu redor enquanto ele impacientemente espera pela edição matinal do jornal The Globe. A carreira de quem o fofoqueiro colunista J. J. Hunsecker (Burt Lancaster) terá levado hoje...e qual ele terá destruído?

Their parents died a while ago, and they want to keep that secret from the townspeople, especially the young school teacher, Prudence Millett, to avoid being sent to a children's home and eventual separation. Johnny moves in with the kids and poses as their uncle to take care of them while romancing Prudence. But in order to keep the children, he has to get married.
