Forgettable boxing melodrama (with Tony Curtis too skinny for a champion boxer, but agile enough) crossed with a predictable love triangle. The movie gets interesting near the end when it seems for a while like Curtis might have been better off deaf, but of course we must have a 100% happy ending so he wins the championship match, gets the good girl (and makes the bad girl lose her bet against him, to boot), AND re-re-gains his hearing. I ticked the spoilers box, but I probably needn't have. ** out of 4.
