Predictable yet timeless rags to riches tale that has become the baromter for every boxing film since. Best Picture Oscar winner in 1977 and featuring a young scriptwriter/actor Sylvester Stallone in his best acting performance to date.
Heartfelt drama that rightly earned Saoirse Ronan a deserved Oscar nomination this John Crowley directed feature is a simply story told beautifully, aided in no small part by dazzling cinematography and some exceptional performances from it's talented cast.
A Martin McDonagh masterpiece, this feature is filled with clever dialogue and incredible performances in a film that switches regularly from dark comedy to tense thriller. A sign of things to come from this talented director!
