    The Hoodlum (1919 film)

    The Hoodlum is a 1919 silent film comedy-drama produced by and starring Mary Pickford and released through First National. The film was directed by Sidney A. Franklin and was based on the novel Burkeses Amy by Julie Matilde Lippman.

    Plot

    Spoiled Amy Burke (Mary Pickford) lives with her doting grandfather, ruthless business magnate Alexander Guthrie (Ralph Lewis), in his Fifth Avenue, New York City mansion. She is initially delighted when he offers to take her with him on a trip to Europe. However, as the day approaches for their departure, she changes her mind and decides to go live with her newly returned father, "sociological writer" John Burke (T. D. Crittenden), at Craigen Street, wherever that is. Unused to having his plans thwarted, Guthrie becomes cold to his beloved granddaughter.

    Craigen Street turns out to be in one of the slums of lower New York, the subject of her father's study. At first, Amy is horrified by the squalor. She makes it clear to a couple of friendly young women who want to become acquainted and to Nora (Aggie Herring), her father's cook and servant, that she feels she is far above them. Deeply unhappy, she eventually takes her father's advice to treat their neighbors as equals. She fits in after several weeks. She makes friends with boy inventor Dish Lowry and young man William Turner (Kenneth Harlan), a reclusive neighbor. Amy also ends a years-long feud between Irishman Pat O'Shaughnessy (Andrew Arbuckle) and Jew Abram Isaacs (Max Davidson) through good-natured trickery.

    The Dilemma

    by: You Me At Six

    Let me tell you a story bout' a boy and a girl,
    A very different version than you've ever heard.
    Ok so I'm lying but all I'm trying to say,
    This isn't about the one that got away.
    Watch it from your ivory tower,
    Paint the sky grey, like a coward.
    How long you got?
    I can go for hours.
    A sweet little tale that ended sour,
    My words will ring in your ears.
    Take my advice and leave right now.
    You can't find a way to sell yourself,
    To someone who cares,
    To someone desperate.
    First came along my friends were dubious,
    She cared for the stage, not who she was with.
    I brushed it off and hit the road,
    Only to hear she's in the other's 'pose'.
    It was the end of summer in 2009,
    I wasn't really looking but what did I find?
    A golden girl with golden hair,
    When I was with her everybody stared.
    And I couldn't believe my luck had changed.
    And I asked so nice but I 'wouldn't stay'
    Take my advice and leave right now.
    You can't find a way to sell yourself,
    To someone who cares,
    To someone desperate.
    'Beggars can't be choosers',
    I wouldn't choose you,
    I've got better things to do with my time
    I will bear in mind,
    What was in their 'side'
    (Na na na na na na na na na na, na na na na na na na,
    Na na na na na na na na na na, na na na na na na na)
    She said who do you, she said who do you,
    She said who do you, she said who, DO YOU! ?
    Who, do you? Who do you?
    I said who do you, I said who do you.
    Who do you, who do you, think you are,
    Who do you, who do you, think you are,
    Who do you, who do you, think you are,
