The old Broadway is only a memory,
gone are many of the famous landmarks.
:14:06
For already, America is feeling
the effects of Prohibition.
:14:10
There's a concentrated effort at
readjustment to normal peacetime activity...
:14:14
...but unemployment, coming in the wake
of the wartime boom...
:14:17
...is beginning to grip the country.
:14:19
The soldiers find they've returned to face,
on a different front, the same old struggle:
:14:23
The struggle to survive.
:14:31
Yes, sir, where to?
:14:33
Where to?
:14:34
- How about a flat rate back to France?
- Oh, hi, Eddie.
:14:38
How are you?
:14:39
- You didn't land yourself no job, huh?
- Somebody must've told you.
:14:43
No. I figured that all out by myself.
:14:45
You know, on account of your face.
You look kind of tired.
:14:48
I am tired, Danny.
Tired of being pushed around.
:14:51
Tired of having doors slammed in my face.
Tired of being another guy back from France.
:14:55
Take it easy, Eddie. Take it easy.
:14:57
I can't, Danny. I can't.
:14:59
I can't go around shadowboxing anymore.
I gotta find something to do.
:15:02
- I've gotta.
- Wait a minute.
:15:03
Don't... Don't break that.
The landlady will charge us for it.
:15:07
If you gotta break something,
smack me on the chin. It's cheaper.
:15:10
Look, Eddie.
I only use my cab 12 hours a day.
:15:13
The rest of the time, it's laying in the garage.
Why don't you hustle it the other 12?
:15:17
We'll split the gas and the oil,
and you got yourself a job.
:15:24
It may work out, Danny. It may work out.
:15:26
I gotta do something.
:15:28
- Who's there?
- Mrs. Gray.
:15:30
We ain't home!
:15:34
Here's a letter for you, Eddie.
Forward all the way from France.
:15:38
- There's three cents' postage due.
- Put it on the bill.
:15:41
- Don't think I won't.
- And don't you think I think you won't.
:15:49
Well, who's that from?
:15:56
Oh, say, she's pretty.
:15:58
- One of them French peasants, huh?
- No, it's an American gal.
