About this event
Lloyd Bridges stars as Brad Adams, union president of Doubleday Plastics, who is told by the owner that half of the workforce must be replaced by machines or the factory closes. When the owner dies suddenly, his widow (Dorothy Gish) convinces Brad to become the company president. Now as owner, Brad must save the factory without betraying the union. A story of profits, progress and community that remains remarkably contemporary. It includes Ernest Borgnine in his first feature role (as Bill Street). (Robert Siodma, US 1951, 96 min., DCP)
A joint effort of the Dryden Theatre and the Rochester Labor Council, the Rochester Labor Film Series presents motion pictures celebrating workers around the world.
