Young Sinners was a film released on May 17, 1931, directed by John G. Blystone. The screenplay was initially written by Maurine Watkins (the script filmed was William Conselman's, not Maurine's; Maurine's script is in the archives of 20th Century Fox's produced scripts); William Conselman scrapped her screenplay in favor of his own (adaptation, continuity and dialog, according to American Film Institute) based on the play Young Sinners by Elmer Harris (New York, November 28, 1929) (American Film Institute Catalog).
Famous quotes containing the words young and/or sinners:
“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
“There are only two kinds of men: the righteous who think they are sinners and the sinners who think they are righteous.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
