a5c7b9f00b Gangsters try to get a boxer to throw an important fight.
Frankie, a young prizefighter, wins a fixed boxing matchpart of a crime boss's plan to have him build up a following and then have him throw a championship fight. Later, while training, Frankie meets Maryshe is going to church with her family, and he begins a romance with her. The crime boss orders Frankie to stay away from Mary, while continuing to arrange for Frankie to win more fights. Just before Frankie's fight with the champion, he and the boss have an argument. Their plans to fix the fight are overheard by Mary's young brother, which soon leads to a tense situation.
This is a production of the Morris Shiller Company—a minor entity indeed. However, in the opening credits I saw two reasons to stick with the film—Mickey Rooney (in one of his earliest roles) and J. Carroll Naish—two actors that can almost make anything worth watching–-well, maybe not this one! The film begins with a fixed boxing match. I was surprised that although they did film footage of a fight, they also used stock footage in a clumsy attempt to cut costs. From here, the story becomes a pretty standard film about the boxer falling in love with a sweet girl and wanting to give up his crooked life. Naturally his 'friends' don't like this and eventually resort to a kidnapping to keep the boxer in their clutches. But, naturally, by the end all is swell.<br/><br/>The problem with this film is that it just isn't particularly exciting to watch—a definite problem with a boxing film. Poor acting and a sluggish plot don't help any and it's a pretty much forgettable film aside from Rooney. As for Naish, well, he did go on to better things.
A self-described "fall guy for a lot of crooked promoters," handsome welterweight boxer John Darrow (as Frankie "Knockout" Morgan) specializes in winning fixed bouts, for crooked manager Matthew Betz (as "Flash" McQuaid). While training, Mr. Darrow meets attractive Merna Kennedy (as Mary Wilson) through her hero-worshiping little brother Mickey Rooney (as Arthur). A romance with sweet, church-going Ms. Kennedy inspires Darrow to change his outlook on throwing the championship fight, which understandably irks Mr. Betz and his gang. Will it all work out by the closing clinch?<br/><br/>"The Big Chance" may lack puncha picture, but it provided a few of the participants with some good experience. A likable champ, Darrow later became an agent. A fetching woman, Kennedy married big-time musical director Busby Berkeley. Described herein4'6" tall, Rooney grew into much bigger star. Helping Darrow train, and dry off after his shower, is veteran "Keystone Kop" comic Hank Mann (as "Tugboat"). J. Carrol Naish appears in the opening credits, but he not in the film; probably, Mr. Naish was replaced by Frank LaRue (uncreditedJohn Wilson, Mary's father).<br/><br/>**** The Big Chance (8/29/33) Albert Herman ~ John Darrow, Merna Kennedy, Hank Mann, Mickey Rooney
