Great jd flick, pretty upscale as far as jd movies go (serious message "film", with John Frankenheimer directing who later direct "Manchurain Candidate.")
Almost on a par with "Rebel Without A Cause" and "Blackboard Jungle."
I say "almost", because...and I don't want to give away specifics regarding the ending...but the movie is pretty preachy. LOL!
Very good acting by all but this was the beginning of the "It's not my fault, it was society, my parents, my peers, my bed wetting, everyone and thing but me. The sentencing was fair but the morality speeches throughout the movie were leaning to the poor criminal.
A young John Davis Chandler, always the classic slithering bad guy is in this 1961 crime/drama picture, coupled with leading man Burt Lancaster, plus Telly Savalas, Shelley Winters, Edward Andrews, Dina Merrill, Milton Selzer, Vivian Nathan, Robert Burton plus many more fine actors/actresses.

Excellent film that really depicts the time when gangs were really prevalent in NYC. I recall very well.

At about 00:04:46 we see an extra who looks just like a younger Arnold Schwarzenegger. Of course, it's not him, but what an amazing likeness!
