| Brief Description: | Set in the Bronx, immediately after the end of WWII, this delightful,
Academy Award-nominated period comedy tells the story of Danny
DiPalma, a returning veteran of Italian-American descent. The aspiring
songwriter comes under the unlikely wing of a high-strung, heavyweight
championship contender who has been reduced to throwing fights for
money. In comical fashion, Danny struggles to free himself from the
fighter's misguided friendship and win a few of his own. Public performance. |
