Fat City
USA 1971, 97 minutes
Dir. John Huston
Rating: [M]
Genres: Classics, Drama
Topics: Sport.
Feat. Stacy Keach, Jeff Bridges, Susan Tyrrell
Aroview: One of dir. Huston's later accomplishments, this gritty, yet warmly toned drama inhabits a neighbourhood of boxing gyms, lowrent bars and amiable deadbeats.
Based around two boxers and a barfly, whose stories cross and wander around each other over a period of years, this conveys their passions with some slyly comic dialogue, a handful of desultry bouts in the ring and a touching vein of sadness. An interesting contrast to most boxing films.

5 stars (Exceptional) Susan Tyrrell was a force of nature. This whole movie is compelling, but her scenes are electric. ~Pearce
