Movie Description

Meeting on 69th Street

(1969)

Overview

After three young women—Sylvia, Dawn, and Lana—are released from a Florida detention home, they head to New York City with plans to open a small brothel near a Staten Island naval base. On their chaotic opening night, they welcome three sailors whose personalities couldn’t be more different. As the evening unfolds, Dawn pairs off with the boisterous Spots, while Lana entertains the awkward Wendell. Meanwhile, Sylvia, the group’s unofficial leader, attempts to coax shy Big Bill out of his shell. But when Bill unexpectedly develops deep feelings for her and proposes, Sylvia is confronted with a life-changing choice: continue running the house with her friends or leave it all behind for the possibility of love.
