Description:
Stephen Sorrell, a war hero, raises his son Kit alone after Kit’s mother left him and his child when Kit was a baby. Sorrell loses a good job opportunity and takes a low-paying job as a hotel porter. The hard labor and harsh treatment take a toll on his health and self-respect, but he finds strength in knowing it’s for Kit’s future. Sorrell has told Kit his mother is dead, but when she reappears wanting to reconnect, he faces difficult choices. Preserved and restored by the Academy Film Archive in 2004.
