Errol Flynn is so hot in this…I almost forgot how unhinged he was (see here). He had a heart attack while filming this because he was destroying his body with all of his “adventures” (also see here), but you would never know from looking at him in those shorts.
This had very impressive fight sequences, which surprised me, and was a fun, low stakes, cute little underdog boxing film. I found the DVD at a thrift store specifically for donations from estate sales, aka, the treasures of dead elderlies.
