This Canadian made movie is based on a true story. Set in World War I-era New York City, the film stars Timothy Brantley as a boxing champ named CHARLES 'KID' MCCOY, aka "The Real McCoy". Ambitious to the point of ruthlessness, McCoy will mash anyone flat-inside and outside the ring-to get ahead. The era is superbly recaptured, as are the grimy working conditions in the fight game of the era.(AMG) |
