Side Street is a 1929 black-and-white talking movie featuring the only screen teaming of all three Moore Brothers (Tom Moore, Owen Moore, and Matt Moore), each of them major silent film stars. George Raft also makes an unbilled appearance as a professional dancer—which Raft was at the time—dancing to the song "Take a Look at Her Now", sung by June Clyde. Side Street was directed by Malcolm St. Clair.

Plot

A cop finds out that the killer he's chasing is his brother.

Film preservation

Side Street, which survives in its entirety, is George Raft's oldest surviving movie. His first movie, Queen of the Night Clubs, is a lost film (only a small excerpt survives); and his second movie, Gold Diggers of Broadway, is also a lost film (only 2 out of 10 reels survive).
