Mickey the Kid is a 1939 American drama film directed by Arthur Lubin and starring Bruce Cabot, Ralph Byrd and ZaSu Pitts.

Dr. Ben Cameron is worried about 12-year-old Mickey, son of Jim Adams, a widower who leads a corrupt and complicated life.

Pulling a bank robbery, Jim shoots and kills an unarmed teller.

When the bus gets waylaid by a snowstorm, Jim abandons the kids and is unable to persuade Mickey to do the same.

It was based on the heroism of a school boy in a Colorado blizzard a few years previously.
