Synopsis: In the early 50's a man buys a house in Staten Island whose tenants - a middle-aged drunkard and his much younger wife, who is pregnant - won't vacate the place. He urges them to leave because he intends to use the place for residence and also for the bar he plans to open (but to which his wife opposes). An unexpected - for all but one of them - fact, however, changes the course of events.
Appraisal: Moderately interesting story in a competent rendition. It's marginally about racism but ultimately about how the environment one lives in may annihilate one's individuality.
