what happened in the end? (spoiler)


i missed the last 5 minutes... the last i saw, tony was following baby down the street after she was pushed by those drunk men stealing her taxi. i asume they got together and she came back to the club? just hope someone will respond. doesnt look like many ppl know about this movie.

Yes, she came back, everyone perked up and got happy and The End title came up as Franciosa and Douglas toasted each other with celebratory champagne. I was pleasantly surprised by Franciosa, he was really good here.

I agree, they wrap up the Simmons-Franciosa romance a little abruptly, it seems to me you dont know if he will never admit how he feels about her, let alone make a marrige proposal, but that's OK. The chemistry between them was good I thought and he is a MARVELOUS actor. Should have been an even bigger star, but perhaps his personality got in the way? I've read that he had a terrible temper, which in later life he mentioned as a real hindrance to his career, and regretted it.

Franciosa was good in the fifties, but became (or appeared to be) mannered (for some reasons) during the 60s and beyond.
