The Miracle Kid

Tom Neal (Detour) stars in this Poverty Row sports comedy about a chump of a boxer who doesn't realize his manager is fixing all of his bouts. The story goes down a lot of crazy paths, with a subplot about the physical culture racket of the 1940s. Noted B-movie director William Beaudine (The Ape Man, Ghosts on the Loose), is in charge of an excellent cast, including Carol Hughes (Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe) and Vickie Lester (The Mad Miss Manton, This Marriage Business).
