"A tough but kind hearted gangster helps a beggar whose apples he believes to bring him luck to pretend she is a wealthy lady in order for her daughter to marry a wealthy man she loves. Frank Capra's last film is not without charm, but is quite sluggish and too comfortably commercial to match the director's best works."
