THE HARDER THEY FALL
"No Punches Pulled! If you thought "On The Waterfront" hit hard... wait till you see this one!"
Directed by Mark Robson
Jobless sportswriter Eddie Willis is hired by corrupt fight promoter Nick Benko to promote his current protégé, an unknown Argentinian boxer named Toro Moreno. Although Moreno is a hulking giant, his chances for success are hampered by a powder-puff punch and a glass jaw.
