Wallace Beery earned an Oscar for his performance in this original version of the father-son boxing tearjerker that still packs a potent punch. Beery plays Andy "Champ" Purcell, a gin-soaked, gambling-addicted pugilist whose confidence is shaken when he is separated from young son Dink (Jackie Cooper). A demonstration of the boy's adoration and loyalty restores the Champ's vitality just in time for an all-important bout. King Vidor directs; Irene Rich, Roscoe Ates, Edward Brophy co-star. 86 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English, Spanish, French.
