Mein Leben ist der Rhythmus (1958)
Kurz vor seinem hart erkämpften Schulabschluss gerät Danny Fisher in Schwierigkeiten, die ihn das Diplom der Highschool kosten. Sein Vater verlangt von ihm, dass er auf der Schule bleibt, aber Danny träumt von einer Karriere als Sänger in einem Nachtclub. Um das Leben noch weiter zu komplizieren, lagt er sich auch noch mit dem lokalen Gangsterboss an und die verführerische Gangsterbraut hat noch viel gefährlichere Pläne für Dannys Zukunft.
