The film tells the story of Sam Donald Moffat , a recovering alcoholic who feels dissatisfied with his life of sobriety and goes back in search of the good times he enjoyed with his old friends living on Los Angeles Skid Row, Los Angeles skid row Fifth Street hence the film s title . Eventually finding his best friend, C.G. Waite , still living on the nickel, the two men reminisce, and Sam gets a fresh look at the lifestyle he had once vigorously abandoned. The film is a multi level odyssey through the slums of L.A., as well Sam s personal ruminations as he re evaluates the nostalgia he had felt for the free and bohemian lifestyle of a street person. The film also stars Hal Williams , Penelope Allen and Jack Kehoe . The original soundtrack was written and performed by Tom Waits . With its offbeat, comedic depiction of life on the streets, On the Nickel has maintained a cult following since its initial release, although it passed out of general availability for 20 years and effectively became a lost movie. Despite this, occasional showings on American television have kept viewer interest high and have resulted in Mr. Waite s recent decision to collaborate with Thomas Wise, re edit and restore the feature in high definition for DVD and internet release in late 2009.

Wooden Nickel United States coinnickel s were most commonly issued in the U.S. in the 1930s, after the Great Depression . It was during this decade that some banks and chambers of commerce in the United States issued wooden nickels with expiration dates to mitigate difficulties faced by merchants in making change at times of instability. Common views published on the Internet concerning the origin of the wooden nickel are patently incomplete, often making it an innovation of this late date that arose in response to such banking difficulties. Commemorative nickels are then supposed to be an outgrowth of these legitimate wooden nickels.
