Hustlers, mobsters, showgirls and show tunes unite in this Damon Runyon tale about a gambler who bets on love. Filled with :laughs and romance" (Boxoffice), "lively production numbers" (Cue) and "spry tunes (Time), Bloodhounds of Broadway is a "musical treat" (Hollywood Reporter) in Technicolor.
Numbers Foster (Scott Brady) is a bookie with a gift -- he can figure out even the most bewildering numbers in his head. But when his talent leads to trouble with the law, he and his hypochondriac partner, Poorly Sammis (Wally Vernon), must go on the lam. While hiding out in the backwoods of Georgia, they meet up with a hillbilly songbird, Emily Ann Stackerlee (Mitzi Gaynor). Number gambles on her talent and brings Emily Ann home with him to Broadway where she because as overnight sensation. With trouble still stirring and his jealous ex-starlet girlfriend Yvonne (marguerite Chapman) spilling to the feds, Numbers knows that Emily Ann just might be his ticket to the straight life.
