Marty
Although he is good-natured, Marty is still unmarried at the age of 34 due to his socially awkward personality. After being goaded by his mother to marry, he goes to the Stardust Ballroom one Saturday night, and lucky enough meets the lonely teacher Clara. Suddenly, he now has a chance to get out of the bachelorhood.

Going to the dogs in fine style
February 20, 2008
Enormously influential, it spawned Hollywood's interest in smaller scale, prosaic dramas, few of which failed to match its resonance.

Audiences used to seeing Borgnine in more menacing roles in films such as From Here to Eternity and Bad Day at Black Rock warmed to his sympathetic portrayal of the Bronx butcher with low self-esteem.

It's a warm, human, sometimes sentimental and an enjoyable experience.
