What Makes Sammy Run?

Causing a sensation when it originally aired as part of NBC Sunday Showcase, audiences were enthralled with Sammy Glick, a Jewish boy born in New York's Lower East Side who decides to climb the ladder of success by any means necessary. Through backstabbing and double-crossing, Sammy fights to become the industry's top screenwriter in this rags to riches story of a hustler navigating the "dog eat dog" world of 1930s Hollywood.
