Sound On Sight Radio #253: The Fighter / Fat City
We apologize for the sound quality. Something went seriously wrong.
It’s been a few weeks since controversial director David O. Russell’s boxing drama The Fighter hit multiplexes, and Ricky D’s been chomping at the bit to review it since he cauught up with it in the interim, so he, Justine and returning guest Al Kratina will let you know if the movie is anything special. They’ll also talk about another boxing flick from way back, John Huston’s 1972 drama Fat City, with Stacy Keach and perennial SOS favorite Jeff Bridges.
