Through his ne\u0027er-do-well uncle, he gets a job as a clerk in a tobacco shop which is really a front for a bookie joint. he begins his Pilgrim\u0027s Progress in reverse as his eyes are opened to the corruption all about him. He becomes romantically involved with a prostitute living and working above the store, eventually begins to tap the till to offset his meager wages, and acts as a go-between for the adulterous affairs of the owner\u0027s wife, and deals cynically in political propaganda by informing a reporter that Leon Trosky is hiding in Montreal. Plus he finds he has an uncanny knack for picking winning horses at the race track.","wins":0,"nominations":0,"casts":[{"name":"Saul Rubinek","code":"nm0007210","characters":"The Idealist"},{"name":"Paul Soles","code":"nm0813015","characters":"The Uncle"},{"name":"Andr\u00e9e Cousineau","code":"nm0184054","characters":"The Prostitute"},{"name":"Marilyn Lightstone","code":"nm0510032","characters":"Shop Owner\u0027s Wife"},{"name":"Kate Lynch","code":"nm0528367","characters":"Cell Member"},{"name":"Joe Silver","code":"nm0798718","characters":"Store Owner"},{"name":"Al Waxman","code":"nm0915382","characters":"Bookie"},{"name":"Claude Jutra","code":"nm0433267","characters":"Jailer"}],"budget":null,"lifetimeGross":null,"openingWeekendGross":null,"worldwideGross":null,"keywords":[{"text":"uncle nephew relationship"},{"text":"montreal quebec canada"},{"text":"corruption"},{"text":"tap the till"},{"text":"propaganda"}],"production":[{"id":"co0045850","text":"Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC)"}],"prestigiousAwardSummary":null,"moreLikeThisTitles":[]}
