The Harder They Fall (Region B)

The Harder They Fall (Region B)

(Mark Robson, 1956)
Release date: 22 April 2024
Standard Edition Blu-ray

Humphrey Bogart (Knock on Any Door), Rod Steiger (In the Heat of the Night), and Mike Lane (The New Centurions) star inĀ The Harder They Fall, a tough-as-nailsĀ film noirĀ exposĆ© of corruption in the boxing world that would be Bogart’s final film.

Boxing promoter Nick Benko (Steiger) employs down-on-his-luck journalist Eddie Willis (Bogart) to promote his new signing, Toro Moreno (Lane), fixing fights across the country to ensure Toro appears to be a contender. But, when tragedy strikes, Willis threatens to expose the entire racket...

Adapted by Philip Yordan (Johnny Guitar) from a novel by Budd Schulberg (On the Waterfront), and directed by Mark Robson (The Seventh Victim),Ā The Harder They FallĀ is a classic of Hollywood cinema, and a fitting swan song to Humprey Bogart's career.
