A chance to see Douglas' last performance.
planktonrules16 February 2024
Con man Harvey Otis and juvenile delinquent Steve Komak.

NOT dad and son.

During the 1950s, Paul Douglas was a VERY busy actor, starring in dozens of films. While today he doesn't look like a leading man, this 'everyman' actor was popular...immensely popular. One of the reason many folks today don't remember him is that although popular, he died at age 52! And, "The Incorrigibles" is his final performance.

A judge is sick of dealing with two probation violators...an incorrigible teen and a career con man (Douglas). So, he does something that is VERY hard to believe...he releases the pair to the custody of each other. In other words, they'll live together, spend their time together AND, most importantly, if one screws up and breaks the law, the judge promises to send BOTH to prison! Talk about odd and unconventional!!

This is just an okay installment of "Goodyear Theatre". Why? Well, the resolution is just fair and after watching the show, I expected more. Not bad, mind you, just a bit disappointing.

Agreeable time waster
searchanddestroy-129 February 2020
The light hearted study of the relationship between a daddy and his young son, from reform school. A kind of gentle young deliquent who will try to find another way with his old man, played by Paul Douglas. A story for the whole family. A good time waster with amusing scenes but a darker, or may I say, more serious ending. Very surprising indeed.
