The First of May

Eleven-year-old Cory is a foster child nobody wants. Carlotta is an elderly woman the world has forgotten. Together, they find friendship and family when they join a traveling circus, and show "what an old has-been and a First of May can do." Hollywood legend Mickey Rooney costars as excitable circus owner, Boss Ed, with Charles Nelson Reilly as the clown who takes Cory under his wing, and Baseball Hall of Famer and Joe DiMaggio in his memorable last screen appearance as kindly stranger who offers Cory baseball tips and encouragement.
