Description
A tough-as-nails film noir exposé of corruption in the boxing world, Humphrey Bogart’s final film.
Humphrey Bogart (Knock on Any Door), Rod Steiger (In the Heat of the Night), and Mike Lane (The New Centurions) star in The Harder They Fall, a tough-as-nails film noir exposé of corruption in the boxing world that would be Bogart’s final film.
Boxing promoter Nick Benko (Steiger) employs down-on-his-luck journalist Eddie Willis (Bogart) to promote his new signing, Toro Moreno (Lane), fixing fights across the country to ensure Toro appears to be a contender. But, when tragedy strikes, Willis threatens to expose the entire racket...
Adapted by Philip Yordan (Johnny Guitar) from a novel by Budd Schulberg (On the Waterfront), and directed by Mark Robson (The Seventh Victim), The Harder They Fall is a classic of Hollywood cinema, and a fitting swan song to Humprey Bogart's career.
