Jimmy Durante stars as a boxing manager and fast-talking hustler in this fiIm version of the popular Ham Fisher comic strip. When Knobby Walsh comes across simpIe farm boy Joe Palooka, the son of retired boxing champ Pete Palooka, he decides to take him to New York and make him as famous as his father. The fact that Joe doesn't seem to possess his father's naturaI abiIity in the ring doesn't stop him from beating champ AI McSwatt by sheer luck. With the money roIling in, Knobby arranges a series of crooked fights for PaIooka, who is beginning to Iet the trappings of success get the best of him. After an overconfident PaIooka accepts a rematch against McSwatt, he finds that his bright career may come to an abrupt end.
The first in a series of fiIms inspired by the long running comic strip, PaIooka features James Cagney's younger brother WilIiam as AI McSwatt, and a performance by Durante of his signature song "lnka Dinka Doo." |
