Pocketful of Miracles

Frank Capra's final film is a whimsical translation of a Damon Runyon tale set in 1930s New York, as gangster Glenn Ford repays street peddler Bette Davis for her "good luck" apples by passing her off as a well-to-do society lady for her visiting daughter (Ann-Margret in her film debut). Remake of Capra's 1933 "Lady for a Day" co-stars Peter Falk and Hope Lange.
