Youth on Parole


Youth on Parole is a 1937 American drama film directed by Phil Rosen and starring Marian Marsh and Gordon Oliver.

Plot

"Bobbie" Blake and Phillip Henderson are complete strangers looking in a jewelry store window, when a hood known as "The Sparkler" smashes the window and steals the jewelry display. He sets the two up to take the rap, stashing some of the loot in their coat pockets as The Sparkler and his accomplices makes their getaway. The two innocent bystanders are immediately arrested.
No one believes that they are innocent, not even their public defender. When they serve their time in "The Joint", no one will give them a break with their prison record, not even their own families; and they cannot keep a job.
Their Irish landlady, Mrs. Abernathy, likes them and encourages them to get married.
Despite the danger, Phil convinces Bobbie that their only chance is to see "The Sparkler" and even the score.
