Summary |
Working-class dreamers Jonah and Olaf fish the Brooklyn waters and ponder their glorious plan: buy a big boat and head for sunny Cuba. Then an amoral gangster puts the squeeze on the few bucks they've saved and puts the moves on Jonah's daughter, a restless good girl who'd just as soon be bad. And the two friends, the two gentle souls, begin a new plan: murder. |
