Description

Multiple Oscar-winning film adapted by Paddy Chayevsky from his own breakthrough, 'kitchen-sink' teleplay. Ernest Borgnine plays Marty, a shy, middle-aged butcher who leads a dull and hopeless life with his domineering mother. Eventually Marty summons up the courage to start dating a homely girl, but pressure from his mother and continuing doubts as to what his mates will think lead him to stop seeing her.
