Forja de hombres (1938)
Conmovido al escuchar la historia de un convicto que inició su carrera delictiva siendo un niño al que nadie dio una oportunidad, el padre Flanagan (Spencer Tracy) dedice construir la Ciudad de los Muchachos, un lugar donde los jóvenes conflictivos puedan convivir, trabajar y labrarse un futuro honrado. Allí acude a la fuerza Withey Marsh (Mickey Rooney), un joven rebelde que parece un caso perdido y que está decidido a seguir los pasos de su hermano Joe (Edward Norris), líder de una banda de delincuentes.
