Souls Of Sin

Unsuccessful gambler, Dollar Bill Burton lives in a Harlem basement apartment with Roberts, a hard-luck writer, and Alabama, a talented guitarist-singer. At a local bar, Bill is hired by Bad Boy George to sell stolen jewelry and takes an interest in Regina, George's girlfriend who helps Alabama get a break in television.

My take

A gritty portrait of hustlers and dreamers clawing for a break in 1940s Harlem. Watch this if you're drawn to character-driven stories about ambition, desperation, and the moral compromises people make when survival is on the line.
