abstract
  • The judge gives him another option, which he accepts: Louie must live in a vacant apartment of one of his own shoddy run-down apartment blocks until he brings it up to livable standards. The sentence an effective house arrest; Louie is not allowed to leave the apartment except for the following reasons: daily exercise, food shopping, or conferring with workmen in order to repair the deficient problems. In addition, Louie is not authorized to make any changes to the apartment he has been assigned unless all other apartments had the same upgrade beforehand. At first, Louie is adamant that not one repair will be carried out and will wait until his father bails him out. However, he has a change of heart after meeting and getting to know the building's residents, including a small-time hustler named Marlon (Ruben Blades) and a struggling street boy named Tito. Over time, Louie grows more sympathetic with their problems and makes amends for his greediness through actions such as donating space heaters to the tenants to help them cope with the winter. Unfortunately, Big Lou Kritski is the owner of the property in title, and he resists his son's entreaties to spend money to improve the tenements. When Louie confronts Big Lou who is about to set fire to his own tenement, all the residents appear on the roof to back up Louie. The film ends with Louie's building completely refurbished, Marlon becoming the new super and all the tenants gathered outside to see Louie off.
