You all should go rent this movie.
It was made back in the 1970's,back when they actually use to make good movies.
Its about a bare knuckle prize fighter in New Orleans back during the Great Depression(the 1930's).Its really good.You get a feel of what it was like back then and lots of action.
Charles Bronson knocks a lot of fighters out,out on the docks in a ware house etc.
He fights a big bald headed guy at the end.Go rent this.
Anyone else seen this movie?What did you think?

Saw this movie years ago when it was called "The Streetfighter"
They then changed its name to "Hard Times" If I'm right

Is this the one where James Coburn is his manager

That is amazing! He was built like a 21 year old for that film! Good film though! Great fight sequences James Coburn was a great actor!

Well it explains why my mother has allways had a 'thing' for Bronson. Seriously though that man had an awsome body for a 54 year old.
