The Flamingo Kid

The Flamingo Kid

In 1963 Brooklyn, Jeffrey Willis has just finished high school and isn't quite sure what the future holds. His parents expect him to go to college, but he is starting to find his close-knit family stifling. He gets a summer job at the Flamingo beach club where he meets Phil Brody, a successful car dealer who fills his head with ideas about how to make his fortune. Phil is everything Jeffrey would like to be: popular, rich, and the best gin rummy player the club has ever seen. Jeffrey's coming-of-age includes a romance with the very pretty Carla Samson, but the shine on Phil Brody's philosophy of life wears off when he uncovers a significant flaw in his character.
