The Grand Gennaro

Beschreibung

An illiterate Calabrian in southern Italy owes money to his church and mayor. He skips town for the bustling streets of New York. Meeting an old friend, a fellow immigrant, he thanks him for help getting settled, and then steals his money. By pluck, luck, and unscrupulous business practices, this cunning character 'makes America'.
