Ninth Street is a 1999 black-and-white drama written by Kevin Willmott.
Filmed in the United States, the movie was primarily released in English.
Plot
Set in 1968 Junction City, Kansas, sometimes called "Junk Town," the film reflects on the history of "East Ninth Street" during the 1940s when famous jazz musicians played the nightclubs. In 1968, the area has deteriorated into strip clubs and cheap bars where Vietnam War draftees from nearby Fort Riley stop and drink. People in the group include a drunk (Don Washington) who lost a leg in World War II, a taxi dispatcher (Isaac Hayes), a saloon owner (Queen Bey), and a crazy bag lady (Kaycee Moore) (Nadine Griffith) who is trying to get out of the business but is forced to work by a malicious boyfriend (Byron Myrick) and the fact that she has to provide for her baby (Meagan Cordero). Martin Sheen also stars as a white preacher who likes the people in the area better than his own congregation.
