Summary: Joe spends a lot of his time at Nick's Pacific Street Saloon. Tom, who credits Joe with once saving his life, stops by regularly to run errands for Joe. Today, Tom notices a woman named Kitty when she comes into Nick's, and he quickly falls in love with her. Meanwhile, a distraught young man repeatedly calls his girlfriend, begging her to marry him. Nick himself muses on all the various persons who come into his bar, some to ask for work and others just to pass the time. (imdb)

Not really a film at all, this essence of Saroyan contains much to enjoy or to annoy. The performances are pretty good.

Interesting in parts, but never quite leaves the stage behind. Cagney is good as the sage of Nick's Saloon.

Another plotless slice of life movie that I just adore. This one set in a claustrophobic but very cozy wharf pub, bartended by William Bendix. Apparently the original Saroyan play was softened considerably for this release, but I still dig it. One of James Cagney's weirder roles too -- a zen-barfly trickster saint who clearly relishes manipulating the lowlifes even as he adores them like family. Joyous, mundane, strange, life-affirming.
