You can watch Marty (1955) for free on Fawesome.

Marty, a butcher who lives in the Bronx with his mother is unmarried at 34. Good-natured but socially awkward he faces constant badgering from family and friends to get married but has reluctantly resigned himself to bachelorhood. Marty meets Clara, an unattractive school teacher, realising their emotional connection, he promises to call but family and friends try to convince him not to.

Forget the typical Hollywood gloss of mid-century romance for this tender, unvarnished portrait of loneliness in the Bronx. Two overlooked souls find a quiet, profound connection that defies every social expectation of beauty and charm.
