A small-time shmoe who THINKS he is somebody...
by planktonrules2016-03-23

"Herbie Catcher (Frank Gorshin) is a small-timer...a nobody who has visions of being someone. First, he tries to sell Ness a lot of useless information because he hopes this will get him some respect...but his information is useless. Second, he actually witnesses an accident and helps his boss (Albert Paulsen) out with the police...in order to be somebody. So he decides to do something really crazy...to use blackmail and a little book to get his boss to make him a REALLY big man. And even after his boss meets an untimely end, he leverages the information in this book to keep him a very big man...."
