Body And Soul

John Garfield delivers as Oscar nominated performance in this knockout story of driving ambition that stands as a classic of its genre. Garfield stars as Charley Davis, a strong-willed young prizefighter whose ruthless quest for a shot at the title forces him to mortgage his humanity to a corrupt boxing syndicate. But when faced with the chance to regain his self-respect, Charley climbs into the ring one last time in an unforgettable climatic fight scene shot by two time Oscar winner James Wong Howe (Hud). Widely regarded as one of the best boxing stories ever made, Body and Soul boasts a strong supporting cast, an Oscar nominated screenplay by Abraham Polonsky (Force of Evil) and a 1947 Academy Award for Best Editing. Directed by Robert Rossen (The Hustler).
