Good boxing movie, the story of "Gentleman Jim" Corbett, one of the earliest world heavyweight champions under the Marquis of Queensbury rules.
Shows very well how Corbett revolutionised the sport. Before it was pretty much a brawl or slugfest. He used his speed to dodge and wear down opponents, and made it more tactical.
Reasonably accurate, historically. Some of the sub-plots are thrown in for entertainment value and can be a bit silly at times.
Great performance by Errol Flynn in the lead role. Good support from Alexis Smith.
