🥛 ABOUT THE FILM
When milkman Burleigh Sullivan accidentally knocks out a boxing champion in a street brawl, a crafty fight manager (Adolphe Menjou) sees an opportunity. He decides to build up the hapless milkman's reputation through a series of fixed fights, planning to have the real champ beat him later to regain the title. What follows is a hilarious fish-out-of-water comedy as the timid milkman is thrust into the brutal world of professional boxing. Directed by Leo McCarey (The Awful Truth, Duck Soup), this 1936 gem combines slapstick, satire, and sophisticated wit.
