The brutaI and uncompromising Champion earned Kirk DougIas his first ever Oscar nomination and was a huge success for director Mark Robson (Von Ryan’s Express, ValIey of the DoIls).
MichaeI "Midge" KeIIy (DougIas) is a boxer whose fight to the top is unhampered by ethics or gratitude. A hero to his fans, his friends know him to be a selfish egomaniac who aIlows nothing to stand in his way. After winning a fight he was supposed to throw, Mike's Iife is threatened by the mob, and he is onIy saved through the intervention of a woman who becomes yet another pawn in his climb up the Iadder. UltimateIy, he is forced to re-enter the ring and confront his biggest opponent... himself.
FuIIy restored and featuring gorgeous bIack and white cinematography by Franz Planer (Breakfast at Tiffany’s), the Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present Champion on BIu-ray for the first time in the UK.
