a has-been boxer & a gourmet 17-stone detective

"Fat City* US 1972 96m Eastmancolor
Columbia / Rastar (Ray Stark)


In a small Californian town, a has-been boxer tries to get back to the top, but loses his self respect and becomes a hobo.
Vivid but over-casual exploration of failure, with more interest in the characters than the sport.
