Featured review
Barbara Payton playing herself on affair with a boxer sounds familiar??
After a thunderous triangle affair that shaken Hollywood between Franchot Tone, Barbara Payton and the former boxer Tom Neal, it ruins her career for good, all majors studios shut down their doors for her, in declining process he accepts an offer of Robert Lippert that through a joint-venture with Hammer studios on England make a movie there, The Flanagan Boy later re-named on America as Bad Blonde, once more dealing with boxer fighter, if is on purpose means that the producers want capitalize on Barbara Payton background.
At carnival a former boxer's agent Sharkey (Sidney James) has a small busines there, where he challenges someone on the audience for a couple rounds against a retired boxer, when sudden appears the young Johnny Flanagan (Tony Wright) whom knock down his opponent, there he meets his old pal the trainer Charlie (John Slater) both and Johnny must looking for a famous promoter for Johnny, whereof Sharkey aware that Giuseppe Vecchi is on London, the old promoter coming from New York bring a new wife a former dancer Lorna (Barbara Payton) meanwhile the upcoming agreement between Vecchi and Sharkey over a possible partnership, something arises on Johnny over so gorgeous blonde, a sort of secret feeling.
Meanwhile the training at Vecchi's mansion, Johnny and Lorna meet privily at barn, Lorna envisages on Johnny her freedom from the loathsome fat Vecchi, exposing to him that is pregnancy, it somehow disturbs the young Johnny, as display in the fight when he had the opponent at your hands on first round, lost the match when Lorna arrives there, hereinafter Lorna push him to get rid of Vecchi or she own will poisoned his husband, the naïve guy blind by jealous settle a plan to murder him.
Many of reviewers posted here that the picture reminds The Postman Always Rings Twice, well it has some resemblance quite sure, not exactly the same plot whatsoever, due here the main reason is boxer fighter struggles against his own yarning, in other hand a scheming girl deceiving a silly guy enchanted by the sexy bombshell, one's latest movie from Barbara who entered in a self-destruction process that ends up in prostitution at Sunset Boulevard at Los Angeles to afford her drugs addiction and alcoholism as well, her nasty sexual behavior screw up a supposed successful career, I have a great interest on Barbara Payton's life due she had a tremendous potential, a case should be studied!
Thanks for reading.
