CHAMPION
starstarstarstarstar
A truly great boxing film. Kirk Douglas is positively riveting as the title character, an abitious amateur boxer who rises through the middleweight ranks until he gets a title shot which, true to the formula, he's supposed to throw. Douglas's performance made him an overnight sensation; Marc Robson's direction is all action and wastes no time telling this gripping story. Read the complete review for Champion
